First Grade Teacher
First Grade Teacher Wanted!
There are teaching jobs, and then there are classrooms that become a second home.
At Gindi Maimonides Academy, our 1st grade classrooms are joyful, structured, academically serious, and deeply relationship-driven. We are looking for a warm, skilled, collaborative educator who believes young children are capable of far more than most people expect and who knows how to build both confidence and strong foundational skills.
This is not a classroom focused on engagement alone. It is a place where curiosity is built carefully, routines matter, reading and writing are taught explicitly, and students are known exceptionally well. It is also a place filled with laughter, creativity, warmth, and teamwork.
Our elementary model is highly collaborative. You will work closely with a co-teacher, supportive administration, specialists, and a strong grade-level team that genuinely plans and problem-solves together. Teachers here are supported, mentored, and encouraged to grow professionally.
We are looking for someone who:
- Has strong classroom management and creates calm, structured classrooms
- Loves teaching early literacy, writing, and foundational math skills
- Understands child development and how to balance rigor with warmth
- Is reflective, collaborative, and eager to grow
- Communicates professionally and warmly with families
- Brings energy, initiative, and joy to the school community
Qualifications:
- Multiple Subject Teaching Credential (out of state is accepted)
- Prior elementary classroom experience preferred
- Strong communication and organizational skills
Why teachers love working here:
- Collaborative co-teaching model
- Supportive leadership team
- Strong academic culture
- Warm, mission-driven community
- Opportunities for mentorship and professional growth
No Jewish background or religious knowledge is required. We welcome educators from all backgrounds who are excited to teach in a warm, values-based school community.
Pay: $60,000.00 - $75,000.00 per year
