Epiphany is an independent school dedicated to providing excellent, tuition-free education to boys and girls of all faiths, from economically disadvantaged families in Boston. We are looking for recent college graduates who feel a commitment to the city, education, and children and are excited about the idea of working for a full-service school with an extended day. The teaching fellows’ primary responsibilities will be student teaching, running small art electives, coaching sports, and assisting with a major area of school such as technology, student support, administration, etc. While it is recognized that the teaching fellows may have little or no teaching experience, the entire atmosphere is one of collaboration and mutual learning. The teaching fellow position doubles as an Americorps service opportunity. At the end of your service, you will receive an education award. If it is determined that teaching in an urban setting is what you are passionate about pursuing as a career, we may be able to support you in a second or third year where, in addition to serving as a teaching fellow, you may be accepted into a one year program to receive your master’s degree.
