About The Position

KIPP Jacksonville Public Schools seeks a High School Math Teacher for the 2026–2027 school year at KIPP Bold City High School, located at the McDuff campus in Jacksonville, Florida. The teacher will teach at least one subject area and help create a positive classroom environment, implement curriculum, assess students, collaborate with their team, build relationships with families, and perform other duties assigned by the school leader.

KIPP Bold City aims to be a high school built around student voice and choice. It offers honors and Advanced Placement classes, career and technical education, extracurricular activities, and sports. The school plans to expand career tracks and offer Dual Enrollment as it grows. Teachers should align with this approach and be flexible in responding to student interests. The high school model may change as additional grade levels are added. Lead teachers will likely have a homeroom and teach several classes in their subject area, though teaching loads may vary. Electives are selected by the school leader based on student interest and teacher certification areas.

Teachers work Monday through Friday. High school staff hours are listed as 6:45 a.m. to 3:45 p.m.; occasional meetings or special school events may take place outside those hours. Wednesdays are student early-release days, allowing time for weekly professional development and content team meetings. Hours and the school model may change.

The starting salary for a first-year lead teacher is $55,000, with compensation commensurate with experience. Benefits include access to individual medical, dental, and vision benefits; individual short- and long-term disability insurance; a 403(b) retirement program with a company match; individualized coaching and professional development; and potential additional stipends.
