The bright, eager students of Valley Waldorf City School (a.k.a. The City School) are looking forward to meeting their Grades teacher as they cross the Rainbow Bridge into Grade 1 for the 2023-24 school year. This position will be part-time and as the class size grows, could quickly become a full time position.  

We are a small, community-based school in the Los Angeles San Fernando Valley, founded 23 years ago, with the mission of making Waldorf education available to all children. We are associate members of both WECAN and AWSNA.

We are sending an invitation to our colleagues willing to take on the exciting challenge of growing and developing this beautiful, diverse community where Waldorf pedagogy is valued, nurtured, and practiced.

We are located on a charming, park-like, one acre property in Lake Balboa, CA. For 2023-24 we are offering TK, Kindergarten, and Grades 1 - 6. Our class size tends to be small, usually 8-12 students. Our governance is a collaborative endeavor. All teachers have a voice relating to the health and well-being of the school. We also strongly encourage and welcome parents to become involved.

Our ideal candidate would hold their BA degree and a Waldorf Teaching Certificate, with experience in grades teaching. We would consider a candidate who holds a BA and is in the process of completing their Waldorf certification.

Compensation is commensurate with experience, and includes tuition remission for your children.

You can find more information about our school on our website at www.valleywaldorf.org and we invite you to inquire further. We would be glad to engage in a conversation and work with you to arrange a visit.

You may send your inquiry, cover letter, current resume, and 3 professional references to Matt Troedson at matt@valleywaldorf.org. If you have questions you may call (818) 776-0011.
