KEY ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES
Launch your teaching career with a team of extraordinary educators! DSST’s Apprentice Teacher (AT) Program is a year-long teaching residency designed to support you in learning to teach at DSST Public Schools while also earning a competitive salary. You’ll gain transformative classroom experience and development under the guidance of a DSST Mentor Teacher and a program designed to improve your craft through intentional learning, observation, and practice. At the end of your first year, you’ll also have the option of pursuing a Master’s in Art in Teaching at a heavily subsidized rate.
Your primary responsibility is to learn! Our ATs spend time observing various DSST Teachers, practicing teaching real classes, getting direct feedback from their assigned Mentor Teacher, and participating in their school and network provided development.
At the end of your gradual year-long onboarding, you will have the confidence and opportunity to lead your own classroom within our network.
You will build meaningful relationships with and make a tangible impact on the minds and lives of students.
Apprentice Teachers may also take on additional duties as assigned such as supporting student recruitment, running a small group advisory class, after school tutoring, etc. *See many of our possible duties here.
Please Note: teaching experience is not required to become an Apprentice Teacher! We are excited to interview anyone who has completed (or will complete!) a Bachelor’s Degree in any major and wants to make a difference in the lives of 6th-12th grade students. We will inquire about your subject interests & location preference at the time of interview.
Key Differences between Apprentice Teachers and DSST Teachers:
An Apprentice Teacher, unlike a DSST Teacher, does not have the responsibility of managing the learning and culture of his/her own classroom until the end of the year. In the beginning of the Apprentice Teaching experience, the Apprentice Teacher will not assume full responsibility for long term planning, daily planning; assessment creation, data analysis, or behavior management– the DSST Mentor Teacher will manage all of these classroom components and help the Apprentice Teacher transition to managing more on their own as the year progresses. By the end of the year, it is the goal of the Apprentice Teacher to manage the majority of long and short-term planning, assessment creation, data analysis, and behavior management so that they are ready to assume full leadership of a classroom in the following school year.
Apprentice Teacher Pathway
DSST Apprentice Teachers commit to the following pathway to support their development as a teacher. Enrollment and good standing in this pathway is a requirement for continued participation in the DSST Apprentice Teacher Program.
Relay Residency Program (Licensure and master’s degree pathway): Most DSST Apprentice Teachers (including recent college graduates and career changers) enroll in the highly acclaimed Relay Teacher Residency program. For math and science teaching candidates, this preferred partner program is aligned with DSST’s core teaching practices and is highly regarded by our DSST Apprentice Teacher alums.
