Join Our Team

We care deeply about all children and believe education is the great equalizer.

At U Prep every ounce of educator energy and effort comes from a place of love and commitment to our children and our mission. Being surrounded by excellent educators who are obsessed with our scholars winning makes all of us better. There may be nothing more energizing than being part of a like-minded, mission-driven team that is unwavering about doing right by kids.

Grow. Thrive. Lead.

We approach teaching differently. We believe it is a craft that is mastered over time through deep ownership of your growth alongside consistent coaching and support.

Our teachers are loved and deeply supported in their professional and personal development because we know that’s what it takes to achieve excellence and we’re serious about our people becoming exceptional.

Growth & Development

U Prep was the best move I could have ever made for my career as a teacher.

I’m surrounded by teachers who constantly push me to become the best I can be for our students. I’m constantly learning, innovating, and improving on what I learned the day before. If you want to be the best you can be this is the place to learn how.

U Prep Teacher,

All of us want to be a part of a team with shared values.

Educate Our Scholars

All children from all backgrounds deserve to be educated, loved and supported to academic excellence.

Serve Our Families

We make a promise to every family we serve that their child will build an unbreakable education foundation to stand on, and we do everything we can to uphold that promise.

Serve Our Team

Our mission cannot be achieved alone. We are always team players, supporting each other in this incredibly challenging and rewarding work.

Walk the Walk

We hold our scholars to the highest expectations and accept nothing less from ourselves as role models for our children.

My Child

Our schools are places where we would be proud and honored to send our own children.

Teaching is important (really important!)

We know you didn’t get into education to get rich, but we believe you deserve to make a respectable living.

Competitive Salary

No U Prep teacher earns less than $ 55,000 as a base salary. And, for folks joining the network with 3 – 5 years of experience, having served similar student populations and worked in a like-minded school setting, you can start with as much as $ 70,000 in earnings during your first year.

Industry-Leading Benefits Package

Beyond a highly competitive compensation system, U Prep also invests in you as a person. As a start, we cover 100% of your personal health benefits.

Performance Rewarded

We believe your salary should not be solely dependent on your access to further education or how many years you’ve spent in the classrooms, but rather how well you support children in learning, how strong you are at your craft, and how much you positively impact our team.

Coaching, Development and Growth

Whether it’s our multi-week Summer Institute, weekly professional development during the school year, 1:1 coaching with an instructional expert or covering the costs of completing your undergraduate degree, we are serious about investing in our people.
