Overview

Solidly grounded in both the theory and practice of teaching, the Independent School Teaching Residency program is designed to integrate the expertise of professional educators from a host of leading institutions, drawing on the perspectives of scholars and practitioners alike. 

The program offers both a Boarding School Teaching Residency (BSTR) and a Day School Teaching Residency (DSTR) . In addition to teaching responsibilities, program fellows can get involved in other programs at their schools, for example, working within the residential life program at a boarding school, leading an extracurricular activity at a day school, coaching a sports team, or advising students. To be academically eligible for the program, students must be hired into a fellows position by a partner school and maintain employment throughout the two years of the program.

The Independent School Teaching Residency program is ideal for those who:

  • Have less than 2 years of teaching experience and an interest in the independent school context
  • Have the ambition and drive to earn a master's degree in education while completing an intensive teaching fellowship at host partner schools
  • Desire a cohort experience in a collaborative learning community
