Language Arts
Social Sciences
Science
English
Mathematics
Technology & Innovation
Leadership
Music & the Arts (dance, theater, and visual arts)

Room and board will be provided to single teachers, while teachers with families may reside in neighboring towns and commute each day. This position begins in January 2021 with a paid 6-month teacher training program, which will prepare team members for the school year beginning in July 2021.
