2027-2028 High School CTE (Health Sciences)

KIPP Jacksonville Public Schools seeks to establish their career and technical program at our high school by adding a CTE instructor to our team. We seek teachers that are comfortable teaching anatomy and physiology, health science foundations and/or a combination of foundational science coursework to students that are entering into year one of their CTE track in health science. This would lay the foundation for a potential three-year program that results in students gaining industry certification(s). 

We seek a teacher that will be committed to providing quality career and technical instruction that sets students up for college access and as such, the CTE teachers would ensure students are both exposed to rigorous and foundational health science material and can meet the state’s industry certification examination requirements.

This position would work closely with the electives department. Teachers are responsible for creating a positive classroom environment, implementing curriculum, assessing students, collaborating with their team, building relationships with families, and other duties as assigned. Full teacher responsibilities are ultimately outlined by their school leader.

Teachers at the high school work from 6:45 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and may have occasional meetings or special school events outside of these hours. Student hours are typically 7:15 a.m. - 2:30 p.m. Every Wednesday is a student early release day (12:30 p.m.), which allows teachers to participate in weekly professional development.

Please note the location of Bold City High School is located at 1440 McDuff Avenue North.
