    Our Approach to Teaching High School Science

    We seek a dedicated secondary science teacher to provide rigorous instruction to our students. The ideal candidate will create an engaging, supportive learning environment that promotes students asking questions and defining problems, planning and carrying out investigations, analyzing and interpreting data, using mathematical and computational thinking, constructing explanations and designing solutions, engaging in argument from evidence, and obtaining, evaluating, and communicating information as described in the Next Generation Science Standards.

    The science teacher will be an integral part of our educational team, working collaboratively to ensure the academic success of our students through the implementation of the RMP Science Academic Program & Resources.

    High School Science Teachers at Rocky Mountain Prep will…
    • Consistently use the Intellectual Preparation Protocol to internalize curricular materials at the unit and daily lesson level
    • Collaborate with their instructional coach to improve lesson plans and facilitation based on regular, frequent feedback
    • Be a continuous learner of strong science pedagogy and research
    • Challenge students with curricular tasks that encourage scientific thinking and let them take the lead in their learning
    • Align all lessons to the Next Generation Science Standards and implement practices that promote understanding of grade-level science content
    • Manage lab materials and work within CDE Science Safety Regulations for storage and use in class
    • Implement network intervention strategies based on student data that support students with unfinished learning

    All Teachers at Rocky Mountain Prep will:

    Take ownership of student outcomes by setting high expectations, using data to guide instruction, and ensuring all scholars grow through strong planning, rigorous teaching, and timely re‑teaching. They build inclusive, relationship-centered classrooms by implementing proactive routines, culturally responsive practices, and consistent communication with families. RMP teachers collaborate closely with colleagues and support staff, contribute to school-wide initiatives, and support daily operations to maintain a safe and organized environment.

    They also model RMP’s PEAK values in all interactions and remain flexible and responsive in a fast‑paced, data‑driven environment aligned to our evolving Concept Essence.
