Why our educators choose us.

People teach at HU-MS² for the mission, and they stay for the place — a small, close school on a university campus where their work is seen and supported. Here’s what that looks like in practice. For exact figures and plan details, talk with HR; the categories below are the shape of what we offer.

What we offer

More than a paycheck.

Competitive compensation

We pay our educators fairly for the work they do. HR shares the full salary and compensation details for each role during the hiring conversation.

Growth on a university campus

Teaching on Howard’s grounds puts you near university faculty, graduate mentors, and resources most middle schools never touch. We invest in your development as an educator.

A supportive small-school culture

Small classes and a close faculty mean you’re not on your own. Colleagues collaborate, leadership is reachable, and your voice carries in how the school runs.

Work that means something

Every role here serves one mission: opening math and science to scholars who deserve the chance. That purpose is part of what we offer the people who teach here.

Want the specifics?

Salary ranges, health and retirement benefits, paid time off, and other plan details vary by role and are confirmed by HR during hiring. We’ll walk you through the full package before you decide — no guesswork.
