Fellows will become familiar with all aspects of Thayer’s extensive academic and extracurricular programs and will work closely with a professional mentor in the assigned areas of responsibility, which may fall in the Middle School, the Upper School, or both.
Initially, Fellows will observe classes and assist with individual and group projects. As the year progresses, Fellows will take on more responsibility, typically culminating in teaching classes.

Other responsibilities will include participating in family/teacher conferences, attending faculty meetings, and fulfilling other occasional duties, such as coaching or leading electives/activities.
In addition, the Academy expects Teaching Fellows to work with the assigned mentor to develop a two-year professional development plan that will include, but not be limited to, enrollment in a Master’s program. Thayer Academy will fully fund these activities during the Fellow’s employment at the Academy. While it may very well be the case that Thayer Academy will seek to hire Fellows as full-time teachers upon conclusion of the program, the Academy will commit to providing guidance and support for other future professional opportunities that Fellows may pursue following the conclusion of the program.
Qualifications: Bachelor’s Degree with a major in an area related to English, Mathematics, Foreign Language, Social Studies, Science, or Physical Education.
Compensation: A stipend of $30,000 and fully supported professional growth opportunities during the Fellowship, including enrollment in a master’s program. In addition, there is rent-free, on-campus housing available.
