Building Substitute Teacher: Temporary, Long Term Position

Founded in 1973, The Learning Project is a small elementary school centrally located in Boston’s Back Bay neighborhood. We believe in nurturing students’ academic and personal growth, encouraging the joy and creativity within each child, and taking advantage of all that our city setting has to offer.

The school seeks a dynamic educator to serve as one of the school’s building substitute teachers on a daily basis. The Building Substitute leads classes in a faculty member’s absence, and also assists in classes or with administrative tasks when all faculty members are present.

Experience teaching and working with elementary age children is a must. Also important are outstanding oral and written communications skills, strong interpersonal skills, a command of the value-added use of classroom technology and a commitment to the values and principles of this school, as described in our Mission Statement.

This is a temporary position, to be filled immediately and last through June 10th – the last day of school. The Learning Project offers highly competitive faculty salaries and comprehensive benefits, including medical, dental, and vision insurance plans. This position also includes a monthly MBTA LinkPass for commuting.

The Learning Project actively seeks applicants from diverse backgrounds as part of our broader effort to ensure that our community and our hiring process reflects our mission, which is rooted in social justice, diversity, equity and inclusion. All candidates should connect to, and be willing to carry forward, these principles in their instructional and relational work.
