About Maritime

Western New York Maritime Charter School is a military-style public charter school built on structure, accountability, and leadership development . Our classrooms are predictable, disciplined, and focused on execution.

We do not operate in a loose or unstructured model. Teachers here are expected to lead, enforce, and deliver results .

Who We Are Looking For

We are not looking for someone who "likes math" and hopes students will engage.

We are looking for a teacher who:

  • Runs a tight, structured classroom every period

  • Can manage behavior consistently without escalation

  • Holds students accountable for showing work, thinking, and completing tasks

  • Is comfortable addressing issues immediately, not later

  • Understands that math success requires discipline, repetition, and clarity

  • Thrives in a high-expectation, no-excuses environment

If your classroom tends to become inconsistent, off-task, or dependent on student motivation, this is not the right fit.

  • You are prepared and on time, every day

  • You follow schoolwide systems and expectations with fidelity

  • You do not ignore low-level disruption

  • You hold students accountable for both behavior and academic output

  • You maintain professionalism at all times
