Mr. Gunn had a deep appreciation for the natural world, believing that in nature, students understand themselves as humans and their place in the world. He took a principled stand against slavery and spurred students (and the town at large) to examine their beliefs. In addition to the habits and skills students will need in college and life beyond, we teach them to follow Mr. Gunn’s example: to cultivate wisdom, to be trailblazers, to act with conviction, and to value character as highly as intellect and achievement.  Summary The Frederick Gunn School is seeking candidates for a full-time teaching position that includes Mandarin instruction within the World Language Department as well as contributing to another academic department.

Responsibilities  The general responsibilities of a full-time teacher at The Frederick Gunn School include:  Candidates must have experience teaching Mandarin. Preference will be given to those who can also teach in another language and/or contribute to an additional academic department. Teach up to four sections in an interactive classroom environment.

Mr. Gunn wrote in 1870, “There is an unconscious influence, a mysterious, silent emanation going out from the personality of every teacher... more powerful than the will of man... every teacher will actually teach that which he is.” To teach at The Frederick Gunn School is to embrace this legacy—to guide students toward their best selves, in mind, body, and spirit.
