About this role
Capital City Sports Academy integrates athletics into the academic day for every student, and this science teaching role sits at the center of that model. You'd teach 6th–8th grade science in a tuition-free public charter school where small-group instruction, daily sports, and social-emotional learning are woven into the daily schedule. The position requires you to design and adapt lesson plans, differentiate instruction for diverse learners, manage classroom culture, track student progress, and communicate regularly with families about both academic and social-emotional growth. You'll also incorporate technology into lessons and participate in school-wide activities and culture initiatives.
This role demands an Ohio teaching license in science and a bachelor's degree in education or a related field. You should be comfortable in a coaching-oriented environment where frequent observations, feedback, and progress monitoring are standard practice.

You'll also supervise students across different school spaces and need to pass background checks.
