School Leader (2023-2024)

The intention of this job posting is to attract candidates interested in joining a school leadership team within the Carmen network. The COVID-19 pandemic has taught us to be flexible and expect the unexpected, so while we hope to retain all of our school leaders and continue to grow with them, we also know that personal and family needs can often create unanticipated vacancies. As specific leadership vacancies become known throughout the spring, a full job description and campus location will be posted.

We encourage both experienced school leaders and those seeking their first school leader role to apply! Carmen is searching for data driven leaders, committed to their own growth and development and seeking to invest heavily in our teachers, students and staff. We look forward to meeting you!
