What are the responsibilities and job description for the ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL (#490) position at St. Rita School?
Saint Rita School in Alexandria, Virginia, is a Catholic school in the Classical tradition. Built on a strong parish community of dynamic and engaged families, our school invites our 250 preschool to eighth grade students into a deeper relationship with Christ. We prioritize faith formation, character development, and the richness of a rigorous classical curriculum based on the history and master works of the Western tradition. Through a quest for goodness, truth, and beauty, we challenge our children to read, think, write, and speak clearly so they can navigate the confusion of the world and become the saints God made them to be.
Saint Rita is seeking to add an assistant principal to our administrative team, someone to help with all aspects of running a small but dynamic school.

This joyful Catholic educator should have strong leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills, with an ability to tackle any challenges of school life while always keeping the focus on the hearts, minds, and souls of our students.
