About The Position

Meeting Street Schools is a groundbreaking network of four South Carolina schools with a mission of “empowering children with the excellent, life-changing education they deserve.” We were founded in 2008 to give hard-working students the opportunity to receive an education that will transform their lives. We are ambitious in our commitment to families, and we expect the same in return. We value exceptional teaching, life-changing student achievement, innovation and a growth mindset, and gratitude and responsibility. We exist to change the status quo in education, and we seek individuals who strongly align with our mission. We look for those who refuse to compromise and see education as the gateway to opportunity. We hold high expectations for ourselves and our students. Our team strives to meet a bar of excellence, and we constantly challenge ourselves to get better and evolve our approach. High performers and leaders are encouraged to apply. Teachers at Meeting Street Schools combine the ability to motivate and educate, to develop academic as well as character skills, and to make a college preparatory education relevant both now and for the future. With a co-teaching model across the board, experienced educators are paired with a co-teacher or a Teaching Fellow as we aim to give students the excellent, life-changing education they deserve. Teachers at Meeting Street Schools have a growth mindset and are afforded multiple professional development opportunities throughout the year, including collaborative planning sessions, whole and small group school-wide focus professional development, team analysis of performance data, and other personalized opportunities for teachers to grow. Teaching Fellows Program: For those who learn best by observing, doing, receiving feedback, and guidance, the Teaching Fellowship program is perfect for you. In addition to working alongside a co-teacher and learning on the job in real-time, Fellows receive targeted and unique development as they learn the requisite skills to graduate into a lead teacher role. Graduates with bachelor's degrees in any major are welcome and encouraged to apply ( Applications for the 2026-2027 Teaching Fellows Program open on Monday, November 3, 2025) .
