This is a special circumstance contract for the remainder of the 2024-25 school year. The person appointed to this position is welcome to apply and be considered for ongoing, full time role at ISB per the process for all candidates.
Our Middle School (MS) focuses on academic, social, and personal growth for all students.

The EAL teacher co-plans units and lessons with subject teachers and pushes into classes to support students. In addition, they teach scheduled English for Academic Purposes (EAP) classes for a total of five blocks of EAL support. The EAP classes focus on language acquisition and development through the use of course content from students’ other courses (e.g. English, Social Studies, Science, etc.)
All full-time MS teachers serve as Advisory mentors and manage a non-stipended student activity or club, alongside typical supervision duties (e.g. cafeteria, hallways, etc).
