Culver Academies, serving approximately 830 students, seeks qualified candidates for a full-time World Languages and Cultures faculty position effective August 2026. Qualified candidates will hold at least a BA in Spanish with several years of teaching experience at the secondary school level preferred. Teachers with experience teaching in a constructivist environment or have familiarity with designing proficiency-based curricula and integrated performance assessments are strongly encouraged to apply.

The successful candidate will collaborate with the Spanish team as well as a multilingual team in order to design the student experience. Successful candidates will have a commitment to fostering belonging and inclusion in concert with our student-generated Diversity Statement.
