Ideal candidates will welcome collaborating with colleagues within the PE/Athletic Department and be open to stretching themselves as an educator.

A bachelor’s degree and prior experience coaching varsity boys lacrosse is a requirement for the position.
Maret’s dynamic community and campus in the midst of Washington, DC, create a unique learning environment for students from Kindergarten through Grade 12. Expert teachers inspire students to think both creatively and analytically, seek out multiple perspectives, work hard, and make time for joy as they tackle our challenging curriculum or set out on a new artistic or athletic path. The School’s mission and core values guide all that we do and provide a strong foundation for lifelong learning, responsible citizenship, and achievement.
Our community strives for equity and inclusion in every aspect of school life. Maret School stands firmly behind the principle that the admission of students, the employment of faculty, the operation of programs, and the governance of the School be open to all who are qualified regardless of race, ethnicity, color, national origin, gender identity, sexual orientation, or creed. We believe that this principle is both firmly grounded in the spirit of American democracy and in keeping with the civil responsibilities of an independent school.
