Job Description

The Work in One Sentence

Be the heartbeat of teaching and learning at Butler Academy—inside classrooms every day, coaching adults to greatness, and turning data into urgent, tangible gains for scholars.

Why This Role

Most senior academic jobs drift into paperwork and meetings. Not this one.

Our Provost is our network’s lead instructional coach : a charismatic, hands‑on leader who

  • models excellent teaching for deans and teachers alike,
  • builds simple, high‑impact systems that keep everyone laser‑focused on scholar growth, and
  • fuels an energetic, mission‑driven culture where urgency, joy, and data coexist.

If you’re itching to trade spreadsheets for whiteboards—and to live in a close‑knit town where you can see the impact of your work every day—this is your call.

What You’ll Lead

1. Instructional Coaching & Talent Development

  • Co‑coach the coaches. Train and develop our three Deans so they can run rigorous coaching cycles with every teacher.
  • Model excellence. Teach demonstration lessons, run live practice, and lead weekly learning walks.
  • Codify greatness. Build a BA “Coaching Playbook” that translates TLAC, Get Better Faster, and Cognitive Coaching into clear tools and look‑fors.

2. Teaching & Learning Systems

  • Own curriculum adoption, high‑quality assessment design, and equitable grading protocols.
  • Design data dashboards that surface gaps—and sprint with teams to close them.
  • Craft master schedules and PD calendars that maximize instructional minutes.

3. Network Leadership & Culture

  • Serve as chief academic strategist and thought partner to the President.
  • Align Ops, Student Support, and Development teams around scholar outcomes.
  • Act as School Lead whenever the President is off‑site.

What Success Looks Like

  • Instruction moves. 95 % of classrooms hit BA’s “effective” bar by winter; 70 % are “highly effective” by spring.
  • Deans level up. Each dean demonstrates a full GROW coaching cycle with fidelity—and their teachers’ data prove its impact.
  • Gaps close fast. Interim assessments show scholar growth outpacing NWEA projections in 80 % of grade–subject combos.
  • Culture hums. Staff surveys reflect high trust in coaching, clarity of feedback, and belief in our BRAVE core values.

You Might Be the One If…

  • You’ve led big academic wins as a principal, CAO, or director of curriculum—but still light up when you’re in front of kids modeling a lesson.
  • Data is your compass and you move with urgency: “Let’s fix it by Friday” is your default.
  • People leave your PDs saying, “I can’t wait to try that tomorrow.”
  • Small‑town life appeals—you see community as a feature, not a bug.
  • BA’s mission of equity, joy, and rigorous instruction resonates at a soul‑level.
