Middle School Science Teacher - SY 2026-2027

Anticipated Start Date:  November 16, 2026 (subject to change) 

 

 

Middle School Science Teacher

This position reports to the building principal.

 

The Lincoln School 5-8 seeks a middle school science teacher candidate with a passion for the science and tech/engineering content and for working with students. The candidate should have relationship-building and instructional strategies for working with a diverse student population to support all students' academic and social-emotional growth. We also seek candidates who will embrace being a part of our broader school community while constantly pursuing professional growth. 

 

Our middle school science teachers are responsible for teaching science as well as the tech/engineering classes, typically for only one grade level but they may teach two grades if necessary. Content taught would follow the MA Frameworks and reflect a scope and sequence generated within the Lincoln Public Schools science department. The science teacher is part of a grade-level team and would have an assigned advisory group in that grade. The position has common planning time each week with their grade-level colleagues and set departmental time across campuses throughout the year. All teachers new to the district are assigned a mentor. 

  

Lincoln, Massachusetts

Lincoln is a residential suburb located 12 miles northwest of Boston. Established in 1754, the town has a rich history dating to our country’s Revolutionary period and has maintained many of its early characteristics and traditions. The community places a high value on public education, open space, diversity, and community involvement.

 

The school system has a well-earned reputation for educational excellence, offering innovative, student-centered instruction in an inclusive setting with small class sizes. The district serves students PreK-8 at two schools: the PreK-8 Lincoln School, which serves Lincoln-resident families, Boston-resident families participating in the METCO program, and the children of staff members; and the PreK-8 Hanscom School, which serves military families living on the Hanscom Air Force Base.
