    Teacher Leadership Opportunity in PreK-5 Civic Learning (compensation and PDPs)

    Are you a PreK or elementary school teacher in a Massachusetts public school? Are you passionate about helping your learners practice civic skills and navigate civic choices? Apply to take a leadership role developing professional learning opportunities for Massachusetts teachers with the DESE* Civics Pathways project.

    DESE Civics Pathways is a professional development initiative of the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, developed and facilitated by Massachusetts teachers, Project Zero and the Democratic Knowledge Project at Harvard University, iCivics, and the Collaborative for Educational Services. We are convening a cohort of Civics Teacher Leaders to develop and facilitate virtual and in-person workshops and online courses for PreK and elementary school teachers that consider how to integrate civics with early literacy and embed civics in the elementary classroom. As a Civics Teacher Leader, you will support the learning of teachers across Massachusetts, develop your professional learning design and facilitation skills, and deepen your own learning by engaging with fellow teacher leaders and civics experts.

    Civics Teacher Leaders will receive compensation and PDPs for their work.

    APPLICATION DEADLINE: Monday, Feb. 26, 2024; 9am
