The Waldorf School of Philadelphia is searching for a First Grade Class Teacher to start September 2024 and to lead our Class of 2032 through Eighth Grade.

If you are a flexible, enthusiastic teacher who wishes to participate wholeheartedly in the life of the school, we would like to hear from you.

To join our team of teaching staff you will have a BA, be fully trained in Waldorf Education, or on your way to becoming fully qualified, and you’ll have a history of collegial work, parent education, and communication. You may wish to know that our school actively encourages and supports professional development through mentoring support and attending courses and conferences.

The School offers a competitive salary and benefits package, including healthcare, dental, and significant opportunities for professional development.

Our love, reverence, and respect for childhood are reflected in our collegial community of teachers, a diverse mix of seasoned professionals and those who are relatively new to teaching in a Waldorf school. A magnet for creative, community-minded people, our school seeks to foster and support thoughtful, socially conscious, and engaged adults. We actively seek candidates who demonstrate a real commitment to diversity and multiculturalism in education. With a maximum of 24 students in our grades classes, we seek candidates with experience of working with diverse and active groups of students.

To apply, send a letter, your resume, and contact information for three professional references to Dr. Becca Torregrossa, Faculty Administrator, at employment@phillywaldorf.com.
