Job Description

Special Education Dual Language Teachers, K-5 (School Year 2023-24)

About LEEP Academy

LEEP Dual Language Academy Charter School opened its doors in August 2019 as the first charter school in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. We use the research-based 90:10 model of Spanish language immersion that helps all students achieve in all subjects while also becoming bilingual and biliterate. In the 2023-24 school year, we will grow to serve students in grades K-5, using instructional techniques from high-performing charter schools and the best dual language programs in the nation.

LEEP Academy is led by an experienced board and leadership team, with big ambitions to grow and replicate over time. We make every hiring decision with an eye on future leadership potential. Our school community is linguistically, racially, and socioeconomically diverse, and we are committed to being a good neighbor in Sunset Park for decades to come. Our school is located at 54th Street and 5th Avenue, in a private building with a long-term lease.

We’re now hiring Special Education teachers for the 2023-24 school year, for placement in second-fifth grade. Our Special Education teachers co-teach with a general education teacher as part of Integrated Co-Teaching (ICT) classroom settings. In third-fifth grade, teachers are departmentalized and students move through their classrooms for the different subjects. Our Special Education teachers in 3rd, 4th and 5th travel with the ICT group to differentiate the lesson for their students in each of the subjects.
