Infant Lead Teacher

The Goddard School located in the City Park West neighborhood of Denver is looking for a fun, energetic individual who is looking to grow in their teaching career.

Are you looking for a collaborative environment where you have the flexibility to teach what’s best for your students? Do you have just as much fun playing as the children do? You get to create lessons that meet the developmental needs of your class. Never lesson planned before? No problem! We have resource books, mentor staff, and lots of lessons from prior years to help you!

We have a nurturing, caring, and safe environment for both students and staff. Our days are never boring! We play all day and have fun while supporting one another. This is more than a job; we are a family! Our goal is to help children develop a lifelong love of learning. Our teachers work in a student-centered, nurturing environment with the support and collaboration of management, staff and families.

Are you searching for your new school family, or are you new to the field? We are always looking for experienced teachers with higher education to add to our school family, but we are also happy to help new teachers find the best path to gain early childhood knowledge and lead status. We value continued education and know there’s always more to learn, so we’ll even help cover the cost of ECE coursework. We also have paid and voluntary ongoing training opportunities available!

· A 401k plan that the school contributes to alongside your contribution.
