Second Grade Homeroom Teacher
Odyssey School provides holistic, heart-centered education with an emphasis on strong academic standards. We are a community-centered Integral institution spanning Pre-k through high school with low student-teacher ratios (1 to 12). Our mission is preparing students, families, and educators to meet the challenges of the 21st Century from an authentic sense of self, and we invite teachers to deepen their practice, connect with their peers, and guide our students in developing a lifelong love of learning.
We have a position opening in Odyssey’s 2nd grade classroom starting January 2021! An elementary teaching license is required, in addition to a strong desire to work, learn, and teach in an integral, creative, and dynamic community. Preference will be given to candidates with grade-level experience and expertise. This classroom cultivates a creative curriculum along with foundational academic and essential learning skills. Modeling enthusiasm, compassionate communication, and a deep and true curiosity for learning is essential.
