The Goddard School of Arnold is hiring! We are looking for a passionate Preschool Teacher or Pre-K Teacher to join our team and help young children build the skills, confidence, and curiosity they need for kindergarten and beyond.

Full-time teaching position available with a $500 signing bonus for eligible new hires.

At The Goddard School, teachers are the heart of everything we do. We believe great early childhood educators deserve a supportive, collaborative environment where their ideas are valued and they have the resources and professional development they need to grow.

As a Preschool or Pre-K Teacher, you'll use Goddard's research-based curriculum to create meaningful, hands-on learning experiences that support children's academic, social-emotional, physical, and cognitive development.

If you love watching children make those incredible preschool milestones—from recognizing letters and beginning to read, to counting, problem-solving, developing friendships, and becoming increasingly independent—we'd love to meet you!

What You'll Do

Create a safe, nurturing, and engaging preschool classroom environment.

Build positive relationships with children, families, and fellow teachers.

Plan and implement age-appropriate, hands-on learning experiences.

Support early literacy, early math, science, STEAM, social-emotional development, and critical thinking.

Use play, exploration, and inquiry to encourage children's natural curiosity.

Observe and support each child's individual growth and development.

Encourage independence, confidence, problem-solving, and a lifelong love of learning.

Maintain a welcoming, organized classroom environment.

Communicate professionally and consistently with families and your teaching team.

Collaborate with other teachers and school leadership to provide exceptional early childhood education.

Passionate about preschool education and working with young children.

Patient, nurturing, energetic, and dependable.

Positive and professional.

A strong communicator and team player.

Creative and excited to plan engaging learning experiences.

Committed to helping children develop the skills they need for kindergarten and beyond.

Previous preschool, pre-K, childcare, or early childhood education experience is preferred.
