Description
POSITION : KINDERGARTEN TEACHER
REPORTS TO: PRINCIPAL, GRADES K-4
St. Matthew's, an independent Episcopal day school for students in Preschool through grade 8, is accepting applications for a Kindergarten Lead Teacher for school year.
Kindergarten classrooms are currently team-taught by two lead teachers who take joint responsibility for planning, teaching, and monitoring the success of all learners in their class. The two teachers work together and share their expertise to build a dynamic learning environment. During the school year, the school is making a strategic shift to have two classes of Kindergarten, each taught by one Lead Teacher and one Associate Teacher - this teacher will then fulfill that role. The school provides a challenging academic program and places a strong emphasis on building character and empathy as well as a focus on service learning. The successful Kindergarten teacher will have expertise and command of early elementary curriculum and have an ability to differentiate instruction and content. An appreciation for children's sense of wonder and curiosity is essential as well as an understanding of the unique developmental needs of early elementary learners.
St. Matthew's has a nearly 75-year record of supporting teachers through a strong professional development program. Compensation is highly competitive.
