Cambridge Public Schools

Each school day, over 1200 adults from all walks of life leave their homes to lend their time and talents to the Cambridge Public Schools, knowing their presence here makes a true difference in the lives of children. Whether a teacher, custodian, principal, paraprofessional or a member of our technical, food service, central office or other department, every member of our staff is considered to play a key role in achieving the CPS mission: “Academic excellence and social justice for all students.”

“What I like most is the opportunity to positively influence kids’ lives, and to introduce them to experiences they ordinarily might never have. I have earned a lot from my students.”

We also strive to keep the Cambridge Public Schools a great place to work. In Cambridge, expectations are high and the work is demanding. We believe people accomplish more when they have the resources, tools and support they need to do their job well in a collegial and respectful work environment. Here, you will find that you have access to the resources you need to do your job well and achieve your professional goals. Chances are you’ll make good friends and strong professional connections along the way.

“The educators in CPS are really passionate about their work. It is an honor to work here. I have learned so much about myself and my craft. I know that the people I work with will be lifelong friends and mentors.”
