We are seeking a creative and skilled educator ready to engage in transformative experiences with children. Our unique K-5 program follows the philosophy of the founding teachers, who seek not merely to teach children but to awaken within them a sense of empathy and connection. Inspired by Parker Palmer, Nel Noddings, John Dewey, and many other voices, the school believes that the inner experience of the child is crucial to meaningful growth.

About the Position

We are searching for a full-time lead teacher who embodies the following attributes:

A willingness to engage in a transformative process: to question personal beliefs and prejudices, and to critically examine his/her relationships with students;
Warmth and kindness, firm expectations, knowledge of child development, and the conscious use of language in a school setting;
Equipped with a growth mindset characterized by ongoing personal and professional development, while leading children to discover new capacities in themselves.

Teaching @ Tru

The school is organized into small mixed-age classes (up to 12 students). The teachers collaborate to determine integrative content strands and essential questions, then implement those strands through developmentally appropriate activities with their individual classes. They communicate regularly with parents to inform them about student work and assess student progress against standard benchmarks of achievement.

Teachers participate in school community events and outreach programs. They also set yearly professional development goals to support continued growth in educational theory and practice. Teachers reflect on their practice, collaborate constantly, and bring a strong personal touch to their work. Our integrative approach allows them to design original activities that reach across the traditional disciplines of science, literature, social studies, and art. A desire to explore, research, and teach unfamiliar topics is essential.

Benefits

Health and retirement plan matching benefits
Tuition credit for staff children
Opportunities to apply school mission in creative ways
Highly supportive staff and parent community
Inclusive decision making process
Developmentally appropriate teaching environment
