About Hebrew Public

Hebrew Public is a small and growing network of schools operated by Hebrew Public:
Charter Schools for Global Citizens. Hebrew Public is a secular organization that welcomes candidates of all backgrounds into a supportive and inclusive community.

Across the network, Hebrew Public schools serve children from all backgrounds and help students become global citizens who are strong problem solvers, aware communicators, and lifelong learners committed to making a positive difference in the world around them. Our schools are models of racial and economic integration, academic excellence, and world language learning.

Why PHP?

As part of Hebrew Public, Philadelphia Hebrew Public teachers and staff have the opportunity to bring that mission to life with students from over 37 zip codes across Philadelphia, primarily Black and Brown students whose brilliance, curiosity, and potential drive our work every day.

PHP is rooted in the belief that all students deserve rigorous academics, strong relationships, and access to a globally minded education that expands what they see as possible for themselves. For educators who want their work to matter beyond the classroom walls, PHP offers a place to help close opportunity gaps while nurturing students academically, socially, and culturally.

You don't need to speak Hebrew to apply, and we strongly encourage candidates from traditionally underrepresented groups to join our community.

The Opportunity

This is an ideal entry-level opportunity for someone interested in building a career in education, particularly in school climate and culture, special education, teaching, social work, or student support. The role offers hands-on experience reinforcing school wide expectations, building relationships with students, and supporting children with higher behavioral needs alongside experienced educators and student-support professionals.

The Culture Assistant reinforces the routines and norms that help students succeed during lunch, recess, transitions, dismissal, and other shared moments. This person celebrates students who meet expectations, partners with school teams to support those who struggle, and helps create a school culture that is structured, positive, and responsive.

The role also includes collecting and entering behavioral data for our Game Time program, particularly for students receiving more intensive behavioral support. Accurate documentation helps school teams identify patterns, track progress, and coordinate effective interventions.

This position follows an adjusted 9:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. schedule to support dismissal, after-school behavioral interventions, and data entry.
