    About the Role: St. Martin’s Lutheran School is seeking a dynamic, engaging, and mission-aligned Spanish Teacher to lead language instruction for students in PK3 through Grade 8.

    This educator will introduce and develop students’ Spanish language skills through intentional, age-appropriate instruction that builds listening, speaking, reading, and writing abilities over time. The role requires the ability to work across developmental levels—from early exposure in Early Childhood to more structured, skill-based learning in Middle School.
