Greenwich, United States Greenwich Country Day School Full time
Job DescriptionJob Description


 

      

Greenwich Country Day School is an independent, co-educational day school with a current enrollment of over 1400 students in grades N-12, and a faculty and staff of over 350. The original Old Church Road campus is home to grades N-8. The High School, established in 2019, is located less than two miles away on Stanwich Road. Founded in 1926, Greenwich Country Day School is a family school where innovative teaching is encouraged as teachers model and foster a love of learning, challenge and inspire children toward academic excellence, and cultivate students’ interests and talents outside of the classroom. We value purposeful and personal learning in a joyful environment, with emphasis on the development of character, creativity, and a sense of personal value along with strong academic skills. GCDS is committed to graduating ethical, confident leaders who possess a strong sense of purpose.

GCDS is fortunate to have built a large endowment that helps to fund competitive salaries and benefits, a robust professional development program, and reimbursement for graduate school tuition. GCDS offers a substantial need-based financial aid program to support students from a range of socio-economic backgrounds.  

Greenwich Country Day School seeks a Director of the Dance Program to start in August 2024. The Dance Director will oversee a robust and highly regarded program that currently offers 31 hours of dance each week across the two campuses and additional rehearsal time in preparation for the Annual Dance Showcase, which takes place in the spring. The ideal candidate will understand that every student who walks into the dance studio is a dancer (even if they don’t yet know it,)  and make sure that every student is welcomed, encouraged, and devotes appropriate effort to dance. This is a 10-month/year position.

Diversity is a core value at GCDS, and we seek candidates who demonstrate a commitment to equity and inclusion. Candidates from underrepresented backgrounds are encouraged to apply. GCDS is pleased to offer transportation support and accommodations, as needed, along with an introduction to the local area, for those candidates who travel from outside of the region for on-campus employment interviews.

Responsibilities Include:

  • Work with the Coordinator of the Arts, Athletic Directors, and Administration to develop and execute the yearly dance schedule
  • Collaborate with the Ambush Dance Coordinator (Grades 9-12) to assist and oversee the Upper School program
  • Communicate Dance Program information to parents, students, faculty, and staff
  • Teach a set schedule of dance classes
  • Manage dance instructors and cover absences
  • Manage dance studios
  • Teach winter Dance P.E. elective classes for grades 4 and 5
  • Manage dance showcase costume inventory and team uniforms; catalog, clean, and store
  • Choreograph the dance performance for the annual Walkathon/Homecoming Event and the Middle School Musical, and assist with choreography for the Upper School Musical
  • Choreograph halftime performances for the Middle School basketball games
  • Approve all music and choreography for the annual Dance Showcase
  • Maintain high standards and exceptional training

Required Qualifications:

  • A background in dance education, performance, and choreography that will support the successful leadership of a dance program that serves toddlers through young adult dancers
  • A passion for learning and the ability to motivate and inspire students
  • A love for working with students of all ages and the ability to manage various issues attendant with different stages of physical and emotional development
  • Excellent communication skills
  • Commitment to building a diverse, equitable, and inclusive school community
  • Personal traits appropriate for nurturing the growth of children - must be energetic, creative, flexible, patient, and have an inexhaustible sense of humor

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience in and desire to build culture and community with both adults and students 
  • Demonstrated experience in establishing collaborative relationships with external partners/organizations in the design and implementation of learning experiences
