Who We Are Capital Village is a network of micro-schools that puts students first. Every student is different. But time and time again, they cite the same key issues when it comes to school.  Students want more authenticity, more skills that are relevant to their everyday lives, and above all, more agency in their own learning experiences. Without these, schools fail students — and we believe they deserve better. Capital Village Schools is born out of the urgent need to rethink the “one size fits all” model of American education. Each Capital Village School will create an environment where all students, regardless of background or circumstance, are propelled toward greatness in college, career, and life. With only 160 students at each school at full capacity, our intentionally small communities will focus on personalizing the learning experience and serving the whole child. Grounded in the principles of EL Education (formerly known as Expeditionary Learning), our students will master academic content through engaging social justice-focused projects. Our first campus, a middle school, is slated to open in Washington, DC, in Fall 2020. Who You Are You believe that school can be different, and you want to use your voice and your skills to help shape an innovative new school model that will ultimately grow to serve hundreds of students across the city. You are, above all, a learner. Your potential is limitless because you are constantly growing as a person and as a professional. You are driven by the belief that all children, regardless of their background or their zip code, can achieve at the highest levels. You believe that it is the job of a school to provide the right academic and behavioral supports so every student can succeed, including the implementation of restorative justice practices.

The Founding Associate Head of School Role The Associate Head of School (AHOS) will join the Head of School and the Director of Operations to form Capital Village’s founding school leadership team.

The AHOS will be responsible for: ● Instructional Leadership - managing and coaching a cohort of educators, creating and executing high-quality professional development, especially in regards to how best to support diverse learners ● Special Education - leading and managing all aspects of the school’s special education program, including instruction and compliance; managing the Student Services team and inclusion staff to ensure that students with special needs are able to achieve at high levels ● English Language Acquisition - ensuring that English Language Learners (ELL) receive high-quality ELL instruction; monitoring our ELL student achievement data, and collaborating with instructors and families to best address the needs of our ELL student population ● Student Behavior - creating and reinforcing a positive, healing-centered school culture grounded in restorative practices; consistently monitoring behavior data and collaborating with the rest of the leadership team to address students’ behavioral needs ● Other school priorities as they arise . In addition to the beliefs and attitudes we described above in “Who You Are,” the ideal candidate for this role will also meet the following qualifications: ● At least a Bachelor’s degree in education; a Master’s degree is preferred ● Certification in Special Education, English Language Learning, or related services ● At least three years of school leadership experience in a special education coordinator, assistant principal, instructional guide, or similar role ● At least three years of teaching experience in an urban setting, preferably at the middle school level ● In-depth knowledge and understanding of Special Education law, best practices, and instructional methods ● A track record of success in increasing the achievement of urban students ● Entrepreneurial mindset, with the drive, passion to innovate, and tolerance of ambiguity needed for a startup environment The targeted start date for this role is July 1, 2019.
