Valor Preparatory Academy is seeking an experienced mathematics educator to serve as the academic leader of our Grades 612 mathematics program while also teaching selected upper-division courses.
This role is designed for a candidate capable of shaping a vertically aligned secondary mathematics sequence, supporting faculty development, strengthening honors and AP pathways, and contributing to long-term program excellence during a significant season of institutional growth as our Upper School transitions to a new campus facility.
Faculty at Valor teach students who demonstrate exceptional attentiveness, respect, and intellectual engagement. Class sizes are intentionally small, allowing teachers to focus on deep instruction, meaningful relationships, and high-level academic formation rather than classroom management.
