June 30, 2026 Position Summary Youth Build Preparatory Academy is seeking a Mathematics Facilitator of Learning who can help students see math as a tool for problem-solving, decision-making, and real-world change. At YBPA, we are not looking for an educator who only teaches formulas, isolated procedures, or test prep. We need a math educator who can help students make sense of numbers, patterns, data, money, measurement, space, systems, and the world around them.
Math instruction at YBPA must be rigorous, practical, accessible, and connected to students' lives. The Mathematics Facilitator of Learning serves as a teacher, advisor, project coach, assessor of mastery, and member of an interdisciplinary academic team. This role is grounded in YBPA's commitment to competency-based learning, project-based learning, culturally responsive instruction, and liberatory education. The ideal candidate understands that many students have been taught to fear math or believe they are not "math people."
This role requires an educator who can interrupt that narrative and help students build confidence, skill, persistence, and mathematical agency.
About Youth Build Preparatory Academy Youth Build Preparatory Academy is a competency-based, project-based, interdisciplinary learning community rooted in liberatory education. We serve students who deserve more than a traditional school model built around compliance and memorization. Our work is grounded in four core commitments:
Growth, Relationships, Agency, and Belonging. We believe students learn best when they are known well, challenged with purpose, and given meaningful opportunities to demonstrate mastery.
