This position would leverage outstanding teaching and technology to enable students in Math, Robotics, Design Thinking and other areas that would prepare them for the Upper School and beyond.

The STE(A)M concept integrates Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts/

The person taking on this role would have the opportunity to lead our collective conversation in these areas across both the Middle and Upper School.  They model STEAM concepts while teaching in the Mathematics department likely teaching sections of Geometry.  Additional course opportunities could be found in Physics and/or Computer Science depending on the expertise of the person in the role.
