High School Science and Math Teacher

Come work at Portland Waldorf School! We are welcoming applications for a full-time High School Science and Math Teacher starting in the 2025-26 school year.

Join our community of Waldorf Educators. We are a school of faculty and staff who love their craft and are enthusiastic about engaging students. We are committed to working collaboratively with colleagues and the parent community to create an educational environment aligned with Waldorf pedagogy, our school mission, and program goals. We value self-development and instilling a sense of belonging in our community.

This position teaches an integral part of the high school’s robust core science curriculum, including chemistry, physics, biology and earth sciences and is taught experientially through concentrated and focused morning lessons within each discipline.

The Waldorf science curriculum teaches blocks of each science annually, engaging students with a dynamic and holistic view.

We require a teacher candidate to hold at least a bachelor’s degree and have at least three years high school teaching experience. We prefer candidates with a master’s degree specializing in Physics, Chemistry or Biology, and who have completed Waldorf teacher training.

Teaching responsibilities include all grade levels (9-12) in blocks and skills classes.

This is a full-time, salaried, exempt position and annual compensation ranges from $52K-63K and is based on education and work experience. Benefits offered include paid time off, medical/dental/vision insurance, tuition remission, retirement plan, and professional development opportunities. Position begins July 1, 2025. Please send a brief one-page biography/letter of interest, resume, and three professional references, including phone numbers and e-mail addresses to hiring@portlandwaldorf.org .
