Teach Physics. Inspire the Next Generation of Innovators.

Are you passionate about Physics, Engineering, or STEM? Ever thought about becoming a teacher?

Green Dot Public Schools is looking for passionate, curious, and driven individuals to teach High School Physics and inspire students to see the world through science.

Whether you're already a credentialed teacher, an engineer looking for a meaningful career change, or a recent STEM graduate interested in education, we'd love to meet you.

No teaching credential? That's okay. If you're eligible for a California teaching credential, we'll help you navigate the pathway to becoming a Physics teacher.

Who Should Apply?

We're especially interested in candidates who have:

• A Bachelor's degree in:
• Physics

• Mechanical Engineering
• Structural Engineering
• Experience teaching, tutoring, mentoring, coaching, or working with high school students - or a genuine interest in helping students prepare for college, careers, and life after high school.
• A passion for science and a desire to make complex concepts engaging and accessible for students.

Whether you've taught in a classroom, coached robotics, led labs, tutored students, or trained employees, we want to hear your story.

Why Teach at Green Dot?
