Job Description

Bold’s Teaching Fellowship Program is a highly-selective, school-based training program that empowers aspiring teachers with the training, skills, and experiences needed to become highly effective teachers. Ideal candidates are those who hold a commitment to improving educational outcomes in traditionally underserved communities. The Teaching Fellowship Program provides strategic, programmatic, and financial support over the course of two years, as Teaching Fellows hold full-time teaching positions at Bold as Teaching Fellows in year one and Lead Teachers in year two. Bold Teaching Fellows are supported by an instructional leader to develop the skills and expertise to grow into a highly effective teacher.

Bold covers all expenses related to obtaining a New York State Teaching Certification. Bold contributes to, and in some cases fully covers, the cost of a Fellow's graduate school tuition for a Master's Degree. To support Bold’s commitment to hiring, developing, and retaining a diverse teaching staff who is representative of the communities we serve, a scholarship for additional financial aid is available.
