Bridges is a youth-development program that is committed to the long-term success of Baltimore City youth and to providing life-changing opportunities to independent school students. The program currently serves 798 young people - 440 Baltimore City youth ages 9-23 and 358 independent school students - through sites at The St. Paul's Schools, Gilman School, The Bryn Mawr School, and McDonogh School. Teachers who are hired to teach in the program will be hired, contracted, and paid through one of our four program location partners - The St. Paul's Schools, Gilman School, The Bryn Mawr School, or the McDonogh School.
One of Bridges' hallmark programs is the Bridges Summer Institute - a five-week, in-person summer program for Baltimore City students in rising grades 4-9. Students begin their 13-year experience with Bridges at the Summer Institute as rising 4
th
graders and return each summer for six years until they reach high school. The Summer Institute blends academics and enrichment, creating an opportunity for students to learn, grow, have new experiences, and develop their interests and talents. The 2025 Summer Institute will run from June 23 through July 25, 2025 (no program on July 4

Many Bridges summer teachers have returned year after year, maintaining those relationships as they watch the students grow.
The role is seasonal (majority of work conducted over five weeks in the summer) and part-time (25 hours per week on average during the summer), making this a great opportunity for teachers seeking summer employment. During the five-week program, teachers work closely with their students, spending four half-days a week teaching in their subject area and one full day a week chaperoning a field trip. Small class sizes range from 8-15 students with 2-3 high school aged volunteers present to assist in the classroom. Teachers also join weekly staff meetings and assemblies as requested by the Site Director.
Summer teachers will be placed at and employed by one of Bridges' four program sites - St. Paul's, Gilman, Bryn Mawr, or McDonogh - and report to the Site Director. Before the summer, teachers will be in communication with the Site Director and may be asked to participate in one, 45-minute meeting with the Site Director in April or May 2025, as well as one pre-summer all-staff meeting in May or June 2025. Teachers will submit course plans and requests for materials by May 1, 2025.
Ideal Candidates
· Love teaching and building relationships with students
· Have experience working with students from Baltimore City
· Want to have a challenging, fun, and rewarding teaching experience this summer
· Can commit to teaching in all five weeks of the summer program, working 25 hours per week on average, with course planning during the spring under the supervision of a Site Director
· Will have flexibility regarding site placement
· May be interested in making Bridges their home for many years to come
Compensation: The pay scale for this seasonal role is based on years of teaching experience and is as follows:
