Léman Manhattan is the only independent school in Lower Manhattan serving students from 12 months through Grade 12, offering a rigorous International Baccalaureate (IB) Programme in one of the world's most dynamic educational environments. Consistently ranked among New York's top private schools, Léman is also NYC's only boarding school, home to a community representing over 130 countries, and guided by a single mission: "Each student, future prepared." 

Each employee demonstrates a commitment to anti-bias and anti-racism work and to fostering an inclusive learning community. We are committed to promoting diversity, equity, belonging, and justice, and to holding ourselves accountable for addressing harm, repairing relationships, and continuing to learn together. 

Role Overview  

The Upper School Technology Integrator is a full-time educator and instructional partner serving grades 6-12, embedded in the academic life of the Middle and Upper School and working as a mobile, campus-wide presence
across classrooms, common spaces, and divisions. This role builds on the strong impact of the Lower School Technology Integrator to ensure a cohesive, forward-thinking PK-12 approach to educational technology, guided by the belief that technology at Léman should deepen human engagement rather than replace it. 

While this is not a dedicated technical support position, the integrator works closely enough with faculty and students to serve as a first point of contact for Level 1 needs, channeling more complex inquiries to the
technology specialists. Above all, this is a pedagogical leadership role for someone who partners with Administration and faculty to design meaningful learning experiences and guide the school community through the rapidly evolving landscape of artificial intelligence and emerging technology.

• Assist in the evaluation and vetting of new educational technology tools for pedagogical value, data privacy, cost, and alignment with school priorities 

• Maintain awareness of and compliance with Léman's Responsible Use Policy and Acceptable Use Policy, and support its consistent implementation with students and faculty 

Community and Professional Responsibilities

• Engage with the broader educational technology and IB professional community through relevant organizations, conferences, and peer networks 

• Represent the school with professionalism, warmth, and a genuine commitment to Léman's mission and values, modeling the Technology Team's guiding principles: Prioritizing Human-Centered Learning and Deep
Engagement, and Cultivating Digital Well-being and Ethical Responsibility 

 Education and Experience
