Covenant School

Dallas, TX

Purpose

The Covenant School seeks two qualified, collegial, and experienced science teachers to serve in the Rhetoric School (9th to 12th grade). Both teachers will specialize in life sciences (Biology and Anatomy/Physiology) but should be able to teach other science courses as needed. Our science department seeks to give students a growing sense of wonder at the workings of God’s creation, guiding them to be astute observers of natural phenomena and skilled practitioners of the scientific method. Moreover, all Covenant teachers serve as pastors (shepherds) of our students, advising them in their walk with Jesus Christ.

Both positions are for full-time, ten-month employees (exempt). They will report to the Rhetoric School Director.

Qualifications

• Bachelor of Science or higher in Biology or a related field (required).
• Proven track record of excellent teaching (preferred).

Duties and Responsibilities

Character: Exhibit the fruits of the Spirit, serving as a Christian role model both in and out of school. Set a good example for students, parents, and colleagues in speech, actions, attitude, judgment, dignity, and respect, while living in obedience to God’s Word.

Instruction:

• Teach a full load (four or five sections) of Biology, Anatomy/Physiology, or other courses as assigned.
• Demonstrate thorough knowledge of the subject and lively interest in learning more.
• Integrate Christian worldview and Covenant’s philosophy of education throughout the curriculum.
• Provide an orderly teaching environment, consistently enforcing class rules and school policies and showing good stewardship of classroom materials.
• Teach in an engaging fashion, employing a variety of techniques (lecture, discussion, laboratory investigation, etc.) that lead to active learning.
• Maintain regular and accurate attendance and grade records.
• Communicate in a wise and effective manner with supervisors, colleagues, students, and parents.
