About Coney Island Prep
Coney Island Prep is a college preparatory public charter school in Brooklyn, New York. Merging growth, performance and commitment, the Coney Island Prep community takes its responsibility to prepare students for the college and career of their choice very seriously.

We were thrilled to launch Coney Island Prep's elementary school in August 2014. Over the next four years Coney Island Prep will grow to serve approximately 1,000 scholars in grades K--12. The mission of Coney Island Prep is to prepare every student to succeed in the college and career of their choice.

Commitment
There is no more urgent task than to education students from low-income backgrounds. So we hire professionals who are committed to the core. It's high-energy, fast-paced, tiring and sometimes all-consuming. But we wouldn't have it any other way. And neither would you.

What We Have to Offer
There are plenty of ways you can make an impact. And our team is all in. You have the opportunity to work with students, and there's always someone who's got your back from coaching you through a bad day to helping you grow professionally. And while the environment can be hectic and ever-changing, you'll have all of the technology and caffeine you need to get the job done.

What We Ask In Return
You have to be all in too. You own your work and when you reach your goals, you reach higher. Our professionals work incredibly hard, and are inspired by the urgency of what we do. We need professionals who aren't afraid to ask for help, feedback, and support. They're driven by personal responsibility, data, and results, and they're not above doing whatever's asked. They make friends at work, smile through hectic days, and add a little levity in along the way.

The Opportunity
The Apprentice Teacher position is a great opportunity for recent college graduates who are interested in pursuing a career in education, but do not have prior teaching experience. This one-year apprenticeship allows you to gain valuable experience by taking on responsibilities both inside and outside of the classroom, while receiving exceptional professional development throughout the year.
