About Hebrew Public

Hebrew Public is a small and growing network of schools operated by Hebrew Public: Charter Schools for Global Citizens. Hebrew Public is a secular organization that welcomes candidates of all backgrounds into a supportive and inclusive community.

Across the network, Hebrew Public schools serve children from all backgrounds and help students become global citizens who are strong problem solvers, aware communicators, and lifelong learners committed to making a positive difference in the world around them. Our schools are models of racial and economic integration, academic excellence, and world language learning.

Why PHP?

As part of Hebrew Public, Philadelphia Hebrew Public teachers and staff bring our mission to life with students from more than 40 zip codes across Philadelphia, primarily Black and Brown students whose brilliance, curiosity, and potential drive our work every day.

PHP is rooted in the belief that every student deserves an excellent education in a school where they feel known, supported, and connected. Strong school culture makes rigorous learning possible, and our Climate & Culture Team plays an essential role in creating a safe, joyful, structured, and inclusive environment throughout the school day.

We also invest in our staff through coaching, professional development, feedback, and opportunities to take on greater responsibility and grow within the school community.

For people who want to build meaningful relationships with students and help create a school where every child can thrive, PHP offers the opportunity to make an impact every day.

You don’t need to speak Hebrew to apply, and we strongly encourage candidates from traditionally underrepresented groups to join our community.

The Opportunity
