Elementary & Jr. High Teachers

Description:

We appreciate your interest in joining our ministry at Springfield Christian School. We invite you to fill out an Instructional Staff Application and return it to the SCS Office. If an opening occurs for which you may qualify, we will notify you and discuss next steps in our process (including meeting for a personal interview, sending your placement file to our office, completing a Stage 2 Application, etc.).

Believing that the key to a successful Christian school is its staff, we seek professionally qualified applicants who, like Christ, genuinely love children and who, by the pattern of their lives, are Christian role models (Luke 6:40). We look forward to receiving your application.

SCS teachers are charged with equipping students to follow Christ and impact the world for Him. As an SCS staff member, they live out a compelling relationship with Jesus Christ, which is central to daily instruction and interactions with students, parents, and team members. Our staff see students as more than just young people to lead toward curriculum mastery. They also see each student as someone created on purpose, for a purpose – unique individuals to be known and loved.

Our teachers are essential in helping students discover their identity in Christ and thrive in a school community that values excellence in spiritual and academic development.

• Are emotionally and spiritually healthy
