Secondary Scheduling and Academic Support Curriculum Supervisor
Milton Hershey School (MHS) is one of the world’s best pre-K through 12th grade private schools, where approximately 2,200 students from disadvantaged backgrounds are provided with a cost-free home and a top-notch character & career-focused education. Thanks to the generosity of Milton and Catherine Hershey in 1909, the school is fully endowed today, with the resources to ensure students can thrive. The school has prepared over 12,000 graduates to lead fulfilling and productive lives and is expanding to serve more students.
MHS is seeking a Secondary Scheduling and Academic Support Curriculum Supervisor. This position plays a critical role in ensuring students have access to the courses, supports, and academic pathways needed to make progress toward graduation and postsecondary success. The role combines secondary academic scheduling leadership with oversight of curriculum and support programming, requiring both systems-level operational thinking and strong collaboration with instructional and student services teams. If you are a middle or high school principal with strong scheduling experience seeking a new and different opportunity, this may be the role for you.
This Supervisor leads the strategic design, planning, and execution of the grades 9–12 master academic schedule and provides scheduling support for grades 5-8 to strengthen continuity across the secondary program. Working collaboratively with scholastic leaders, curriculum supervisors, teachers, Career and Technical Education (CTE), Graduate Programs for Success (GPS), and other student support partners, the Supervisor helps ensure that scheduling decisions reflect instructional priorities, student needs, graduation requirements, career pathways, and equitable access to academic opportunities.
The position also provides leadership for academic support and programming for secondary students. This includes monitoring student progress toward graduation, identifying academic needs and barriers, coordinating appropriate supports, writing curriculum, and helping ensure students have access to the coursework necessary for success.
This is a twelve-month on-site position. The position compensates between $96,000 and $129,000, plus an excellent benefits package.
