STEM Fellowship

Windsor School is a unique establishment, equipped with world-class facilities, located in Nassau, The Bahamas at Albany. We are crafting a forward-thinking educational experience and are looking for energetic and adventurous teachers, who genuinely want to make a difference. 

Windsor School is an innovative coeducational day and boarding school that is built around our elite Golf and Tennis Academies. Our 150 upper school students all take business classes in addition to typical US course load. On our Albany campus, we serve approximately 250 students in grades 6 – 12, from 37 countries, with a majority of our students local to the Bahamas; twenty percent of our student body have earned scholarships to attend. In addition to our established Athletic Academies, students can also choose to attend intensive Academy Programs in Marine Biology, Music, Equestrian, Rowing, and STEM that take advantage of our location and facilities. 

We are looking to employ an energetic, innovative, and inspiring STEM Fellow for August 2022 to join our distinctive community and help shape the new Albany STEM Academy. The successful candidate will be interested in helping shape this new, world-class program with state-of-the-art labs and fully-equipped workshops for making and engineering, and collaborative workspaces invite experimentation, creativity, and collaboration, inspiring students beyond the classroom.   Ideal candidates will have broad knowledge of and experience with high school science and math instruction and will be facile in the integration of technology in the classroom.
