    Description

    The Langley School, a Preschool-8 independent school in McLean, Virginia, seeks a Lower School Head teacher for the academic year.

    Grounded in a deep respect for childhood, The Langley School offers a warm, welcoming community and an exceptional academic program that uniquely combines inquiry-based learning and social-emotional learning for students in preschool through eighth grade. Since 1942, Langley has shaped curious, confident, resilient leaders, thinkers, and creators who are prepared to thrive in the nation's top high schools and beyond. Langley attracts and retains talented faculty who support the whole child, are excited to be leaders in teaching and learning, and enjoy working in a diverse, highly collaborative setting. Teachers at Langley are committed to the social, emotional, intellectual, and physical growth of each student and foster a nurturing, engaging learning environment where everyone feels a sense of belonging.

Lower school head teachers in grades one and two provide instruction in core content areas (math, reading/phonics, writing and social studies). Lower school head teachers in grades three through five are departmentalized and provide instruction in one of three core content areas (math, reading, or writing/social studies) in addition to serving as a homeroom teacher/advisor for one section of students. All lower school head teachers work collaboratively with special subject teachers in science, world languages, music, art, technology, library, and physical education to create integrated units of study.

    The Langley School offers highly competitive salaries, excellent benefits, robust professional development opportunities, and tuition remission for faculty and staff.

    Requirements:

    • Bachelor's or Master's degree in education,
    • Three-five years previous teaching experience required,
    • Excellent written and verbal communication skills,
