Early Childhood Education Teacher

The Covenant School seeks a joyful, engaging, and mission-driven Early Childhood Education Teacher  to join our Christ-centered community. We are looking for an educator who delights in children and believes deeply in celebrating childhood — honoring the wonder, curiosity, imagination, and formative moments that define these foundational years.

At Covenant, teaching is more than delivering content. It is shepherding hearts, nurturing confidence, cultivating academic excellence, and creating a classroom where students are known, loved, and encouraged to grow into who God created them to be. The ideal candidate is relational, organized, academically strong, and grounded in a vibrant Christian faith that naturally shapes both classroom culture and instructional practice.

As a Presbyterian school community, The Covenant School expects each teacher to demonstrate and articulate a strong Christian faith that aligns fully with the mission, values, and spiritual commitments of the school.
