Finding the right school can be hard - our goal is to connect progressive schools with diverse educators who share the same educational beliefs, values, and goals. The PTOC fair was co-founded by two classroom teachers in 2015, who recognized the need for more teachers of color in progressive schools in New York City, and who wanted to create a space where teachers could meet with both public and charter schools. It has quickly grown into one of the most well-attended teacher job fairs in New York City.
ALL SCHOOLS:
We believe that education works best when teachers and schools are a good "match" for each other. The schools attending this fair tend to favor more responsive, progressive practices over the "no-excuses" model. Educators will be looking for schools with features such as: collaborative learning, a responsive curriculum with a heavy emphasis on social justice, holistic testing, project based learning, LGBTQ friendly policies, expeditionary learning, and Restorative Justice practices.
CHARTER SCHOOLS:
In order to maintain the intimate nature of the fair and to maintain our unique balance of public and charter schools, we limit the number of charter schools that can register. Additionally, we prioritize progressive independent schools that are not part of a large network and have fewer resources. Visit https://tinyurl.com/PTOCApp2020 to apply for the fair.
Whether you are a seasoned teacher or new educator, don't miss the opportunity to connect in-person with school leaders and representatives in a warm and welcoming environment. The event is free for job seekers, and is the only job fair where you can connect with both public and charter schools in the same space. Candidates who attend the job fair are much more likely to secure interviews than those who rely on emails and online applications. Register today, and help us spread the word!
* Please note, the majority of positions available are for classroom teachers.
