Lower School Homeroom Teacher

Calvert School, an independent lower and middle school, has an opening for a full-time Homeroom Teacher for its Lower School for the 2025-26 school year. Calvert School inspires each child to lead a life of purpose by providing a strong foundation in academic skills and character development. At Calvert School, students learn and grow in a joyful and nurturing community that cultivates intellectual curiosity, confidence, and a deep appreciation for learning.

 

Calvert School is located in Tuscany-Canterbury, a residential neighborhood in Baltimore City, just north of Johns Hopkins University and south of Loyola University Maryland. The campus is easily accessible from Charles Street and I-83. 

 

Homeroom teachers are responsible for the daily instruction of reading, math, composition, history, geography, and other content areas. The Calvert curriculum cultivates curiosity and challenges all of our students. We believe our unique approach helps create lifelong learners who strive to achieve mastery in all of their academic pursuits. In addition to managing the daily affairs of a homeroom, teachers communicate frequently with parents and collaborate with their grade level team members to develop and teach curriculum that is motivating and age appropriate. Faculty members are expected to contribute to the Calvert community as field trip chaperones, coaches, and club advisors, and will serve on school committees on occasion.

 

The ideal candidate will have a bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and a Master’s degree is preferred. Candidates should also have prior experience teaching lower school-aged students. Candidates must demonstrate an ability to support and instruct students and be able to demonstrate an ability to inspire and support students. Candidates must have excellent writing, interpersonal, and organizational skills.
