Germantown Elementary is looking to hire a forward thinking third grade teacher who is passionate about education and strives to make learning meaningful and fun for the students. We anticipate the incoming third grade class will have 29 students, thus we will have 2 sections of third grade for the 2023-24 school year. This position is for the second section of third grade.
Now is an exciting time to join our Bulldog family as we are growing. We started a new Transitional Kindergarten Program this year, and we are in the midst of preparing for a major construction project. In the months to come we will break ground for an addition that when completed will include 2 early childhood classrooms and a gym. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get a front row seat for all the excitement to come.
