LA is seeking a full-time teacher to teach both French and Spanish beginning in August 2025. The student-centered French and Spanish language curricula at Lawrence Academy require students to develop communication skills in reading, writing, speaking, and listening through the study of literature, history, culture, and grammar.
Candidates must have backgrounds in both French and Spanish, with strong preference for those who have classroom experience. This position will require teaching four sections. The ideal candidate will have the ability to teach throughout the grades 9-12 French and Spanish curricula. Candidates must also be very comfortable working one-on-one with students and be open and accessible for extra help; important components of being a teacher at Lawrence Academy. Candidates should also embrace developing learning strategies to help a range of students to achieve success.
In addition to teaching responsibilities, candidates must be willing to engage in all aspects of boarding school life from curricular, co-curricular (primarily athletics), and extracurricular programming to residential life programming. Campus housing is available for faculty positions. Interested candidates should expect to live in a dormitory, but on-campus (non-dorm) or off-campus housing might be an available alternative. All members of the faculty are part of our residential program and have regular weekday night duty and some weekend duties.
Required Qualifications:
To apply for this position, please send your cover letter, resume, and reference list in a single PDF to Libby Margraf, at [email protected] . The email subject line should be “French & Spanish Teacher.” No phone calls please.
Cultural competence is an essential element of teaching and learning at Lawrence Academy. We are therefore seeking individuals who are committed to actively participating in professional development and engaging in our cultural competency programs that are structured to move our community forward equitably and inclusively. We encourage candidates from historically underrepresented groups to apply.
