South San Francisco Unified School District

The South San Francisco Unified School District (SSFUSD) community includes 15 schools supporting 8,000 students in Daly City, San Bruno, and South San Francisco.

 

Our mission is that in partnership with our community, SSFUSD will provide exceptional instruction, engaging experiences, and equitable and accessible opportunities and resources to further support our diverse student body so that students are equipped to learn, thrive, navigate their future with purpose, and impact their community.

 

In February 2024, the School Board for SSFUSD adopted our new Vision and Five-Year Strategic Plan. Teachers are at the heart of our priorities – exceptional instruction, engaged students, purposeful partnerships, empowered educators, and equity-centered systems.

 

The Role

SSFUSD is seeking a dynamic, equity-focused, and inclusive classroom teacher to join our school community. SSFUSD refuses to accept that the educational outcomes of students in our district are overwhelmingly predictable based on students’ race, socioeconomics, ethnicity or learning differences. We remain committed to working each day to examine systemic, institutional, and individual biases in order to dismantle systems of inequities that will enable all students to thrive.
