Positions available at Ravenswood City School District - TRANSFORMATIVE LEARNING TECHNOLOGIES LAB : Job Details

Ravenswood City School District, East Palo Alto and Menlo Park, CA, USA

Ravenswood City School District (serving East Palo Alto and eastern Menlo Park) has 8 public school sites, each with a staffed and equipped makerspace. We serve students in Kindergarten through 8th grade.

We will have 2 lab manager/tinkerer positions open next year (starting in August). These are full-time positions with benefits; a teaching credential is not required. One job is taking over an established makerspace at an elementary site, and the other position is opening a space at our new middle school.

For the middle school position, you will be setting up your new space (with a lot of support). We have ordered some of the big equipment (including a GlowForge, Epilog Mini, and Carvey CNCs). The lab manager at this site can still make some of the buying and space setup decisions if they want to.

• We have weekly team professional development (where we share resources and support), so you are part of a cross-district team and are not working alone.
• We benefit from resources and incredible support through our collaboration with Stanford University. Tinkerers often participate in professional development at Stanford directly with the Fablearn Team.
• Working directly with our students can bring a lot of joy and meaning to your work; this is a job where you really can have a huge impact and change lives.
• You have access to amazing tools and equipment (lasercutters, robotics, sewing, CNC mills, basic prototyping supplies, etc).
