Senior Manager, Program (Secondary Math Leadership Coaching)

About Teaching Lab

Teaching Lab is a nonprofit focused on reimagining how educators learn and grow. The organization works alongside teachers, school leaders, district leaders, and state leaders to build stronger professional learning systems that improve student outcomes and advance educational equity. Its broader mission is to create conditions where both teachers and students can thrive through lifelong learning and meaningful work.

Mission and Values

Teaching Lab’s work is guided by a commitment to better educational outcomes for every child. The organization measures success through three core outcomes: educators should learn more with its support, students should learn more in ways not determined by race, gender, or family income, and educators should value the approach enough to continue using it in service of equity.

Team members are expected to work in alignment with the organization’s values: collaboration and responsive service, resilient solution-finding, research and learning with humility, accountable excellence, and equity and justice.
