Job Overview

Our School

AUL Denver is a project-based, trauma-informed, alternative charter high school that serves students ages 14-21 in grades 9-12. Our mission is to provide our students with a positive school community, rigorous academic program, and the skill development necessary to succeed in the world.

We believe a diverse, equitable and inclusive team leads to innovation, which allows us to better support our students, families, and the community – regardless of background, experience, social and/or cultural identity. AUL Denver aims to be an inclusive and equitable workplace by valuing race, gender, sexual orientation and all aspects of individual identities.

Overview of Position :

AUL Denver is hiring for a full-time social worker for grades 9-12 (bilingual prefered). Providers who are successful at AUL value community and connection, authentically support students and staff alike, and actively work to decenter whiteness.

The ideal candidate will possess self-awareness and empathy, a collectivist mindset, and have previously worked with adolescents who have experienced systemic oppression.
