Summary & Description:
The mission of Brooks School is to provide the most meaningful educational experience
our students will have in their lives. Established in 1926 in the town of North Andover,
Brooks provides an all-gender, college preparatory program for 350 students on a
270-acre campus overlooking Lake Cochichewick. We strive to be a place where a
diverse group of faculty and staff want to learn, grow, and do their best work to support
all aspects of a Brooks student’s life, both in and out of the classroom. At Brooks, we
recruit, employ, train, compensate and promote regardless of race, religion, color,
national origin, sex, disability, age, veteran status and other protected statuses. Our
school thrives because of our faculty and staff’s hard work, initiative, dedication and
compassion.
Brooks School seeks a highly qualified head coach for the girls varsity soccer program
for the fall season of 2026 (Position is seasonal but Full time teaching opportunities may be available). The ideal candidate is a clear communicator who champions
student voices and growth, makes community-informed decisions, and has the ability
to partner with various members of the school, including parents, faculty/staff, and
more. The coach’s philosophy should align with the values of the School and of the
Independent School League (ISL). The league states that: “All ISL coaches must be
firmly committed as educators to teaching not only competitive skills but also the
attitudes necessary to achieve the highest standards of respect and sportsmanship
articulated by the league.” The ideal candidate will be a genuine “school person” who
leads by example and chooses to engage in the many aspects of student life even
outside of their stated responsibilities. We especially welcome candidates skilled in
culturally responsive educational practices dedicated to fostering inclusivity and
creating a sense of belonging within our campus community.
