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.
