Assistant Principal

Who We Are

RePublic Schools is a network of high-performing public charter schools based in Nashville, TN and Jackson, MS with a mission to reimagine public education in the South and prepare all of our scholars to graduate from college. In addition to providing a world-class traditional academic curriculum, we empower our students to be change-makers by teaching them to code – starting in the 5th grade.

Despite the fact that our scholars come from traditionally underserved communities (approximately 85% identify as low-income, and nearly 95% as students of color), we have seen them defy the odds to achieve outstanding results. RePublic’s schools have scored in the top 5% of all open-enrollment public schools across the state of Tennessee for both student growth and absolute achievement – making ours the first (and only) charter schools in state history to achieve this dual distinction.

At RePublic, we cultivate a cohesive community of families, staff, and scholars committed to doing whatever it takes to ensure our scholars succeed. We are looking for a Scholar Experience  Manager. Candidates must share our unwavering belief that all children can achieve at high levels and change the world. Sound like you?

What You’ll Do

Overview

At RePublic, we believe that strong, authentic relationships are the foundation for strong school and classroom culture rooted in sky-high expectations for kids. The Scholar Experience Manager  is the culture leader of the school, and is charged with ensuring that the school has the systems and processes in place that enable all stakeholders - staff, students, and families - to work together to create a school-wide culture of safety, consistency, and structure such that joy, positivity, empathy, and love of learning permeate every space in the building.

Reporting directly to the Principal and serving as a critical member of the school-based leadership team, the Scholar Experience Manager designs and manages both proactive and reactive interventions to ensure that (a) teachers are able to hold scholars to consistently high behavioral and academic expectations, and (b) scholars develop the skills and habits necessary to make choices that uplift the school community.
