At DPS, we are driven by our shared vision that Every Child Succeeds. In order to realize this vision, we need the right leaders in the right schools to help us remove barriers to success for our students. DPS is raising the bar for urban public education, and we invite committed leaders to join us as we innovate, motivate and make a real impact for our kids.
Our nationally recognized, innovative pathways to school leadership prepare team members with gradually increasing responsibilities, allowing them to grow as instructional leaders. With about 200 schools serving diverse school communities, our leaders can find the right fit to make the most impact and inspire others along the way.
Our LEAD program provides both current and aspiring DPS leaders with the tools, feedback, flexibility and support needed to refine their craft and effectively lead. As a market leader in compensation, we work closely with school leaders to ensure their compensation reflects their contributions and dedication, including through competitive base pay and incentives for serving our highest-needs schools and making lasting impacts.
Our schools need leaders who can embrace and build upon the unique strengths of their students, team members and community – leaders who can dream big, set a vision and work with their team to make it real. The work is big, but so are the possibilities – and we are looking for dedicated leaders who are excited to join us on this journey.
