Seasonal POSITIONS & Internships
Summer Instructional Coach
Summer 2026
We are seeking highly effective professional teachers to serve as Instructional Coaches (IC) for Summer 2026. IC’s are at the core of our summer program and play a crucial role by training, supervising, and supporting BTSV Teaching Fellows in becoming effective instructors and leaders. IC’s observe, articulate, refine, and improve the techniques of aspiring teachers in a collaborative environment, and as a result, get the opportunity to reflect upon and evaluate their own pedagogical practices.

sUMMER 2026
The Summer Site Associates play an instrumental role in supporting the success of BTSV’s nationally recognized summer program. This six-week program for our incoming 7th, 8th, and 9th-grade students seeks to introduce and develop the core behaviors, values, and skills that the rest of our six-year program reinforces. BTSV’s summer program is a unique hybrid of summer school and summer camp, where students get to take rigorous academic classes and participate in activities that develop college-going behaviors and mindsets, all in an environment that promotes the idea that learning is fun and it’s “cool to be smart.”
