Organization Overview:
The Neighborhood Charter Network (NCN) is a grassroots organization that launched in 2016 in order to manage a growing family of schools in Indianapolis, IN. The mission of The Neighborhood Charter Network is to expand educational equity to the communities we serve.
Job Summary:
NCN schools use a sheltered English immersion program to support students identified as English-language learners (ELs). Our EL teachers are critical to the model, both in terms of direct student services and teacher support. You can find our EL teachers providing instructional support to small-groups of students both inside and outside of the classroom as well as co-teaching with a content teacher, whichever is deemed most appropriate to support that particular group of students. They can also be found collaboratively planning alongside content teachers, providing scaffolding recommendations for EL students or providing professional development related to EL best practices. Our work is grounded in data, so our EL teachers also review student data regularly to figure out what’s working and what’s not yet in order to provide the most effective support possible. Each student is unique, and our EL teachers continuously find ways to ensure they help all our students learn.
