org About Hebrew Public Hebrew Public is a small and growing network of schools operated by Hebrew Public: Charter Schools for Global Citizens. Hebrew Public is a secular organization that welcomes candidates of all backgrounds into a supportive and inclusive community. Across the network, Hebrew Public schools serve children from all backgrounds and help students become global citizens who are strong problem solvers, aware communicators, and lifelong learners committed to making a positive difference in the world around them.

Our schools are models of racial and economic integration, academic excellence, and world language learning. Why PHP? As part of Hebrew Public, Philadelphia Hebrew Public teachers and staff have the opportunity to bring that mission to life with students from over 37 zip codes across Philadelphia, primarily Black and Brown students whose brilliance, curiosity, and potential drive our work every day.

PHP is rooted in the belief that all students deserve rigorous academics, strong relationships, and access to a globally minded education that expands what they see as possible for themselves. For educators who want their work to matter beyond the classroom walls, PHP offers a place to help close opportunity gaps while nurturing students academically, socially, and culturally. You don’t need to speak Hebrew to apply, and we strongly encourage candidates from traditionally underrepresented groups to join our community.

Using the Eureka Math curriculum, this teacher will deliver rigorous, standards-based instruction that builds students’ conceptual understanding, problem-solving skills, confidence, and readiness for the academic demands of high school.

As a founding 8th grade teacher, you will also help shape the culture, expectations, and instructional foundation for PHP’s oldest students. The ideal candidate believes deeply in the potential of all students, creates a classroom that is structured, joyful, and academically ambitious, and is excited to support students during a pivotal transition year.
