Curriculum & Assessment Coordinator Bronx, NY Seton Education Partners seeks a mission-driven, results-oriented individual to be the Curriculum and Assessment Coordinator of the Brilla Schools Network. We are looking for a resourceful, organized and highly efficient team member who will provide outstanding support to the Brilla Schools Network. Background Co-founded in 2009 by KIPP pioneer Scott W. Hamilton and Teach for America alumna Stephanie Saroki de García, Seton Education Partners (http://www.setonpartners.org/) is a response to the dramatic decline of urban Catholic schools in America, which have served the economically disadvantaged so well for decades. In 2013, amidst the shuttering of 60+ urban Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of New York, Seton launched Brilla College Prep Public Charter School in the Mott Haven neighborhood of the South Bronx. Brilla, which means “shine” in Spanish, has achieved academic results that parallel the nation’s most acclaimed high-poverty schools. Alongside Brilla, Seton launched El Camino, an optional, privately funded after-school Catholic faith formation program. In only 6 years, 119 children have been baptized through their participation in El Camino. Seton is working to take these remarkable achievements to scale by managing a network of schools and programs that ensure that thousands of underserved children whose Catholic schools close—and other local children—have access to an academically excellent, character-building, and, for those who choose it, faith-nurturing education. This network is a national model for how other cities facing the shuttering of Catholic schools can continue to serve children and families with limited educational options.

About the Brilla Schools Network The first Brilla charter school opened its doors in 2013, with 200 kindergarten and first graders, and currently serves over 1500 children in grades K-8 across five campuses in the North & South Bronx. The Brilla network plans to expand to eight schools (four elementary and four middle) across the Bronx over the next four years. Roughly three-fourths of Brilla scholars are Latino, and one fourth are African American. Over 90% qualify for the federal meals program. About one in three students are English Language Learners, and one in five has special needs. Brilla schools seek to educate students to lead lives of excellence, virtue and purpose. We do this by leveraging the best instructional practices of model charter schools—implementing a longer school day and year, using technology-based blended learning to deliver individualized instruction, intensively supporting and coaching teachers—and combining this with a robust character education program, centered around our core virtues of courage, justice, wisdom and self-control. About El Camino El Camino, which means “The Way” in Spanish, is an optional, privately funded Catholic after-school faith formation program for underserved children and families. El Camino helps children, their families and their catechists to know, love and serve Christ and His Church; develop the habits, dispositions and beliefs that are indispensable to human flourishing and happiness; and live as disciples in this world and saints in the next. El Camino honors the teaching authority of the Catholic Church. El Camino currently serves more than 400 kindergarten through seventh-grade children for 90 minutes a day, Monday through Thursday. Children receive homework help from experienced teachers, anutritious snack, and 30 minutes each of catechism andphysical fitness. Additionally, children and families have opportunities for shared and personal prayer and character formation. This video (https://vimeo.com/230075720) provides a snapshot of El Camino. El Camino will grow to serve children through 8th grade, growing a grade level at a time each year.
