Position Purpose
This full-time position requires the teacher to teach a comprehensive visual arts program in fifth and sixth grades and art portfolio electives in seventh and eighth grades.

In seventh and eighth grades, students choose from among a variety of electives each quarter. The art teacher should be prepared to offer portfolio electives that help advanced students refine their skills and prepare a well-rounded artist’s portfolio, which in some cases will be used to support students’ applications to high school art magnet programs.

The School seeks a warm and talented educator who will share a passion for the arts with students and help them grow as artists and in their appreciation of art, irrespective of their individual skill level. The ideal candidate will have a strong desire to teach middle school students, collaborate with colleagues, and partner with families.
