Vertex Partnership Academies·New York
The teacher must craft and execute lessons that impart essential knowledge and build transferable skills, while faithfully implementing the school-wide behavior system and data inquiry cycle. Responsibilities also include building strong relationships, providing timely feedback, contributing to the collaborative culture, and supervising student projects.
Vertex Partnership Academies is a public charter International Baccalaureate World High School with a classical core in the heart of the Bronx.
Our mission is to provide students with pathways for upward mobility while preparing them for the responsibilities of self-governance in a democratic republic. Everything we do is rooted in the four cardinal virtues: courage, justice, temperance, and wisdom.
Our Lower Academy curriculum is designed to teach timeless truths in pursuit of the good, the true, and the beautiful. All students train in the seven classical liberal arts of the Trivium and Quadrivium, with explicit instruction and practice of logic, grammar, and rhetoric, choose between Spanish and Latin, and trace the development of the Western Tradition.
At Vertex, our students have agency. Each day, they make choices about the kind of people they want to become, the lives they want to lead, and the society they want to build. It’s our sacred duty to equip them with the knowledge most worth having, to sharpen their critical thinking, and to create a space where they grapple with diverse viewpoints, express cogent arguments, and engage in democratic discourse.
