Job Description:

Judaic Studies Teacher/Rebbe and Director of Student Life. .

Southern California Yeshiva High School (SCY High) is an Orthodox Yeshiva High School for boys located in San Diego, CA.

SCY High seeks to instill in its students a love and appreciation for Torah and Judaism, while providing them with an excellent college-preparatory secular studies education. Since its founding 19 years ago, SCY High has turned its small size into an asset by fostering a sense of family among the students and using extra-curricular activities to build feelings of excitement about school and Judaism. SCY High also strives to cultivate a love and appreciation of Israel in its students. 80% of its graduates have spent a year in Israel after high school, and many of its graduates have served/are serving in the IDF or have made Aliyah. The "big picture" mission of this position is to instill a love and passion for Torah, Judaism, and Israel into the minds and hearts of all students. This plays out in three different areas:

1. As a teacher, the Rebbe will teach five Judaic courses which meet multiple times a week:

• One Chumash course
• One Talmud course
• Three courses which combine Navi,Jewish History, and Jewish Philosophy

For some of the courses the school will provide a full curriculum, while still allowing the Rebbe the freedom to modify the course to suit his particular teaching style and personal strengths.

For other courses, the Rebbe will have the option of either developing his own curriculum from scratch or being provided with one to use and modify. Classes should balance skill-building exercises (when appropriate, e.g. Chumash) with activities geared towards conveying content, all the while keeping in mind SCY High's broader vision of striving to instill in our students a love of Torah, Eretz Yisrael, and life-long learning.

The Rebbe will also teach a weekly elective class which would center around the Rebbe's talents and the students' interests and a weekly halacha class. The Rebbe should promote standards of excellence in teaching and learning. He should utilize a variety of instructional activities to ensure student participation. He should maintain organized records of student achievement in a manner consistent with school-wide standards. The Rebbe will also report student progress to parents in an organized, effective, and timely manner in a method consistent with school-wide practices.

2. As a role model, the Rebbe should serve as a model of a ben Torah in and out of the classroom, inspiring the students to grow as a Jew overall, as well as specifically in their limmud ha'Torah and Tefilla. He will strive to foster relationships with the students, mentoring and guiding them through the turbulent teenage years. The Rebbe is expected to take an active interest in the students outside of school, both through formal extracurricular activities (some of which are described below) and informally through sometimes having students over for Shabbat meals, onegs, and the like, and by finding other opportunities to connect and bond with them.

3. As the Director of Student Life, the Rebbe will strive to help maintain and improve the overall school environment, which includes generally making the school an enjoyable place to be and striving to create a consistently Jewish environment throughout the school day. He will accomplish this by helping to coordinate co-curricular programs, such as Shabbatons, a beginning-of-the-year retreat, holiday celebrations (e.g. Chanukah, Tu Bishvat, and Yom Ha'atzma'ut) and Field Day (Lag Ba'Omer), and help strengthen a weekly Mishmar program by learning with boys/teaching as well as promoting and encouraging attendance. He will also work with the students to help them develop programs and projects that suit their interests and talents in a wide variety of areas and help them take ownership of certain aspects of the school (e.g. leadership roles in tefillah).

The Director of Student Life will also be involved in the planning and implementation of a few recruitment events run throughout the year. Through these different activities, he should strive to develop strong and healthy relationships with the students, enabling him to be mashpi'ah on the students and drawing them closer to Hashem, Torah, and Mitzvot. The Rebbe will also strive to increase the school's visibility in the Jewish community, seeking to build connections with other community members and fostering a positive image for the school.

The Rebbe will be on campus from Shacharit (7:40 AM) until the end of classes (4:45 PM Mon.-Thurs./2 PM Fri.).

The successful candidate will have long-term Jewish learning experience, including semicha.
