Baltimore Collegiate School for Boys Hiring for Certified Science Teacher at Baltimore, MD Full Time

About Baltimore Collegiate
Baltimore Collegiate School for Boys was inspired by the power of the David and Goliath parable to explain the challenges facing boys, especially boys of color. David, a young boy and decided underdog, took only five smooth stones into battle; he used those stones to slay the giant and subsequently become a great leader.

Research indicates that all-boys schools promote high-level academic achievement, better recognize and address the specific developmental needs of boys, and are more likely to encourage creativity among boys

The expressed vision of Baltimore Collegiate School for Boys is that every boy attending our school will become as simply and powerfully equipped as David. Each Baltimore Collegiate gent will develop five virtues – Integrity, Wisdom, Courage, Compassion, and Resilience – their own five smooth stones to slay the many ‘giants’ that are common obstacles on the path to success in life.

At Baltimore Collegiate, we believe that only with great teachers can we reach our mission while reaching every gent in our care.
