Description:
**Bennett Day School is a progressive independent day school looking for passionate educators with innovative spirit and rich background in adolescent learning and school experience. We are a new type of independent school; unabashed believers in the values of progressive education, we put students at the center of the process of learning.**

The Bennett Day Middle and Upper School is hiring a full-time lead World Languages teacher, with a focus on Spanish Language. In this role, you’ll be part of the Middle School faculty team and be responsible for implementing the core characteristics of our progressive, project

- Interest in/Experience working in teams
- Successful experience working as a mentor/advisor to an adolescent within an academic setting
- Interest in/Experience designing innovative and experimental curriculum in a collaborative setting
- Commitment to continual development of one’s cultural competence
