Teach Physical Education at Chicago Public Schools

Thank you for your interest in teaching Physical Education with Chicago Public Schools! For physical education, we are launching a new curriculum aligned to national standards for "physical literacy," which means having the skills and confidence to pursue a wide variety of physical activities that lead to healthy development. Beginning in pre-kindergarten, students will develop not only motor skills and movement patterns but an interest in physical education as a path to enjoyment, self-expression, health, and social engagement. We launched the Pre-K-2 curriculum in 2018 and will launch one for grades 3-5 in 2019. A curriculum for grades 6-12 will be in place by 2024.

Submit your information here if you have a teaching certificate in Illinois or from another state. Then a member of our hiring team may reach out to you to learn more about your background and match you with schools that may be a good fit.
