Salary: $85, annually

Marymount School of New York seeks a dynamic, collaborative, and adaptable Upper School mathematics teacher to join our faculty in January 2026. This mid-year opening coincides with the retirement of our Mathematics Department Chair in June 2026, creating a unique opportunity for a teacher with leadership aspirations.

Ideal candidates—especially those interested in department leadership—should be comfortable teaching Algebra through AP Calculus BC.

At Marymount, all teachers strive to balance high expectations with deep support, fostering both academic excellence and student growth. Full-time Upper School faculty also serve as academic advisors and typically moderate at least one student club or activity.

Responsibilities:

• Teach four sections of mathematics in collaboration with a highly dynamic and supportive team.
• Collaborate on lesson planning, assessment, grading, curriculum development, and fostering a positive math community within and beyond the department.
• For aspiring department chairs, essential functions of academic leadership are:
• Foster a collaborative environment in which faculty work together to deliver a dynamic, innovative, and high-quality academic program
