About Noble
Noble is Chicago’s highest-performing and largest network of public charter schools. Our 17 campuses and 1,680 employees currently serve 12,000 students, 99% of whom identify as persons of color, 90% of whom are from under-resourced communities, and 81% of whom are first-generation college attendees. Noble’s mission is to ensure that all students have equitable and positive school experiences that equip them to complete college and lead choice-filled lives.
We are proud to be recognized nationally for college access and persistence. Noble supports more than 31,000 alumni, with 99% of Noble students accepted into college and historically almost 90% choosing to enroll.
Clear, Consistent and Connected
All staff at Noble are bound by three key principles that shape a strong and positive campus culture at Noble.
• Clear, Setting Clear Expectations: Students, like all individuals, flourish when they have a clear understanding of boundaries and expectations. All Noble Schools staff should prepare and explain academic and behavioral expectations using easy-to-understand procedures, routines, and "what to do" directions in all spaces.
• Consistent, Maintaining Consistency in Responses: Students experience a spectrum of emotions. While all emotions are valid, not all behaviors are productive. Consistency in how these behaviors are addressed helps to ensure fairness and provides students with the security of knowing that our campuses operate with a sense of justice and equity.
• Connected, Building Positive Relationships: Students, like all individuals, thrive when they feel a communal connection to their school and can rely on meaningful relationships with the adults at the school. All Noble staff prioritize positive interactions and relationships rooted in the humanity and belonging of each student.
Key Responsibilities
• Build Safe, Positive Spaces: Uphold Noble’s student code of conduct to establish a structured, safe, and supportive classroom for language learning.
• Design Engaging Language Experiences: Develop or implement a backward-planned curriculum to ensure students progress in listening, speaking, reading, and writing.

• Empower Through Culture: Deliver culturally responsive and sustaining instruction that connects students to the richness of language and culture.
• Promote Active Participation: Use diverse teaching strategies to engage all learners, creating an environment where every student builds confidence in their language abilities.
• Ensure Academic Excellence: Use data-driven approaches to monitor student progress, refine teaching strategies, and ensure growth in language proficiency.
• Teach and advise an advisory, which typically meets daily, serving as the primary point of contact for families. At its core, advisory provides dedicated time for students to assess their progress toward promotion, foster relationships, and build a sense of community with their peers.

• Classroom Expertise: You bring experience leading a classroom where students learn to speak, read, and write in the target language.
