THE POSITION The Resident Teacher (RT) position is connected to BridgeYou, which is Bridge Boston Charter School’s very own teacher development program. RTs have a carefully designed set of responsibilities that allow them to gradually assume lead teaching responsibilities throughout the year—working under the guidance of a Mentor Teacher. While RTs are not lead teachers on Day 1, they are expected to start the school year off with more significant teaching responsibilities than an Associate Teacher / paraprofessional. RTs are expected to attend BridgeYou courses that meet roughly one night per week for the entire school year, focusing on a range of best practices as well as preparation for the Massachusetts Test for Educator Licensure (MTEL). The RT will work collaboratively with and receive support from the Mentor Teacher, the Director of Professional Learning and their respected Dean of Curriculum and Intervention (DCI). The RT will report directly to their assigned DCI . The precise grade assignment for this position has yet to be determined and will depend on the qualifications and background of the person to be hired as well as the staffing needs of the school, but will most likely fall within the Elementary grade levels (K1-4) **Note: A mentor teacher is a lead teacher who has agreed to guide, coach and work collaboratively with the resident teacher (RT) , the DCI and the Director of Professional Learning (DPL) with the intentions of developing a novice educator into an effective lead teacher.
