The Berkeley Carroll School is a Pre-K through grade 12 college preparatory school of almost 1000 students located in the Park Slope section of Brooklyn in New York City. Our vibrant learning environment draws students from all over the city. Admission to the school is competitive, and both our parents and students value achievement and community.
We seek an experienced history teacher for the 2025-2025 school year, preferably with an advanced degree, to join our highly collaborative history department. The candidate should be prepared to teach at least two sections of our 9th-grade Modern World History class, which covers the late 18th century to the late 20th century and focuses on colonization and imperialism, industrialization, the World Wars, and decolonization. In addition, for the 2025-2026 academic year, the candidate should be prepared to teach a 12th-grade elective on the American West as well as a 10th-grade elective on world civilizations. In general, we are interested in hiring a historian who is eager to design and build elective offerings in U.S. history and world history. All courses in the History Department emphasize inquiry, critical analysis of sources, evidence-based argumentation, and the inclusion of underrepresented voices from the historical record.
The ideal candidate will have strong content knowledge, a proven interest in curriculum design and creation, and a love of teaching high school students. We seek faculty members excited to engage in student life by advising students, by guiding a student club or affinity group, shepherding a publication, or coaching a team.
Berkeley Carroll is committed to creating an environment that includes a diversity of perspectives and to cultivating an equitable, inclusive learning community in which everyone has the opportunity to experience a sense of belonging. Candidates with a demonstrated commitment to and experience with diversity, equity, or inclusion work are especially encouraged to apply.
