Our Vision

Our goal is to recruit and organize a diverse teaching staff to serve The School District of Philadelphia (SDP).  We seek to provide the best and brightest teachers with tools, resources and opportunities to live, learn and teach in Philadelphia.

Our Mission

Our mission is to endow our district with dedicated faculty and staff that will continually share, promote and influence positive change toward the future of Philadelphia.  SDP's Human Resources department is committed to employing such individuals with a passion for leading the urban classroom in critical-need areas of our city.

Our teachers and staff embody a true reflection of Philadelphia: A mosaic of minds and cultures that thrive with the advancement of our environment and communities.  In equipping educators with the means to engage our urban youth, we facilitate new directions and conceptions of learning.

In building a better district, you must begin with a firm foundation - we believe that very foundation lies within the strength and diversity of our workforce.
