LIFE AT REPUBLIC
Working at RePublic isn’t just a job. It’s joining a group of like-minded individuals who are dedicated to a mission. It’s a team of teachers and leaders who stop at nothing to ensure that every scholar is prepared to succeed in college and life.
WHY REPUBLIC?
OUR COMMITMENT TO DIVERSITY, EQUITY, AND INCLUSION
Serving more than 3,100 scholars in seven schools across two cities; Jackson, Mississippi and Nashville, Tennessee, RePublic Schools is the only school network solely dedicated to reimagining public education in the South.
Part of reimagining education in the South means that we confront the historic inequities that work against our scholars and actively work to dismantle those inequities. We are doing this by intentionally creating environments that embrace, honor, and celebrate our scholars’ identities and experiences, as well as the identities and experiences of every member of our community.
We are looking for dynamic, determined teachers, leaders, and staff to lock arms with our school teams in Nashville, TN and Jackson, MS. Candidates must share our unwavering belief that all children can achieve at high levels and change the world. Sound like you?
