First Grade Teacher

Description

Great teachers don’t just teach what they know; they teach who they are. Heritage Hall fosters an environment that champions educators and cultivates community. We are looking for an enthusiastic, collaborative, relationship-oriented 1st Grade teacher who wants to work amongst educators who embrace the school’s Charger Code, a pledge “to Learn with honor, to Lead with courage, and to Serve with compassion.” 

The Heritage Hall Lower School is a welcoming place where children begin the journey to a lifelong love of learning. During this dynamic development period, our teachers focus on each child's academic, social, and emotional needs and strive to ensure students are engaged, challenged, curious, and happy.

Educators live their “best teacher life” at Heritage Hall. Small class sizes, excellent resources, and the freedom to teach who you are all set the stage for talented faculty to shine and, by extension, for students to succeed.

 99% of Heritage Hall employees surveyed would recommend our school to other gifted educators. 

We hire faculty from diverse experiences and backgrounds because our students need to know that heroes don’t have a common origin story. We are committed to an inclusive school community because that’s the world we want our students to build. 

Heritage Hall supports all faculty with opportunities for professional development, resources for well-being such as health, vision, dental, life, and long-term disability insurance(s), paid short-term leave,  free after-school care for children, and faculty priority for tuition assistance.
