    About Grace

    Grace Church School's mission of fostering academic excellence, ethical values, and an inclusive community anchors our program and informs our pedagogy and curriculum, preparing our students to lead meaningful and productive lives. The school nurtures and educates the whole child, understanding that our humanity comprises mind, body, heart, and spirit. We celebrate our differences, respect our diversity, and embrace our shared human experience.

    In the high school division, students are challenged to reach their full potential, ask essential questions, and wrestle with complex ideas, working to solve real-world problems and participate in the interconnected global community. Our students see themselves as living actors in history and agents for positive change in the world. By linking academic learning and real-world learning, our students understand the dynamic possibilities of using their knowledge and skills to ask new questions and create new knowledge.

    As the foundation for our students' growth and development, the school affirms the enduring value and abiding influence of our historical and cultural past, as it informs the present world in which we live. A blend of tradition and innovation, our high school program grounds students in the core academic disciplines and prepares them to meet the challenges of the 21st century.

    About the Position

    Faculty must be academically prepared and highly effective at teaching and designing curriculum for a rotating block course schedule of three 80-minute periods per 6-day cycle, along with a weekly 80-minute tutorial/studio period for additional individual or small group instruction. Faculty must be adept at using technology for teaching and learning.

    Faculty also serve as advisors in small advisory groups that meet daily. Advisors are responsible for supporting, counseling, and mentoring students through their four years of high school, helping them to understand themselves as learners, to lead their parent-teacher conferences, to contribute to our Chapel and Community Meeting programs, and to develop their Lab Studies portfolios

    Working closely with the Grade Dean, School Counselor, college counselor, Learning Specialist, school chaplain, Dean of Faculty, department chair and High School Division Head, teachers are part of a collaborative, team-based structure with a high level of communication and collegiality. Active participation in a faculty culture of continuous learning, professional development, and intellectual growth is expected

    In addition to teaching four literature sections, teachers participate in our Lab Studies program, focused on inquiry-driven, project-based, experiential learning. The successful candidate will teach a load of two sections of 9th grade World Literature, 2 elective courses (Satire and Shakespeare), elective lab studies classes, advisory, and other duties as assigned.

    Opportunities are available to coach, direct and lead those aspects of our program which take place after the school day has ended, including athletics.

    Qualifications

    Bachelor's degree and teaching experience are required. Master's or beyond preferred
