JOB ANNOUNCEMENT
Fifth/Sixth Grade Classroom Teacher
Saint Francis Classical Catholic Academy in Bally, Pennsylvania (SFCCA), a new independent school in its second year of operations, is seeking a joyful, faith-filled, and intellectually inspiring educator to become its new Fifth/Sixth Grade Teacher for the 25-26 Academic Year. Nestled in the bucolic rolling hills of Butter Valley Berks County, Saint Francis is located on the beautiful campus of Most Blessed Sacrament Parish (MBS,) the oldest Catholic church in the original Thirteen Colonies (1741). SFCCA is an apostolate of MBS and operates with the full blessing of the Diocese of Allentown. There has been a school at this site continually operating since 1743, and SFCCA is proud to carry-on that legacy of evangelization and catechesis that began when intrepid Jesuit Missionary Theodore Schneider began teaching classes thirty-three years prior to America's Declaration of Independence. It is truly back to the future as we seek to form missionary disciples who can spread the Gospel everywhere.
Year One Success/Year Two Growth
In its first year of operations, SFCCA attracted 50 students from 30 families in all grades PK-8, and in year two we have managed to double enrollment to a little over 100 students from 50 families, including a new high school program with a single 9th/10th grade cohort. With that growth, and more anticipated for next year, we now need an additional Fifth/Sixth Grade Teacher to better serve that growing portion of our student body.
Saint Francis sees itself as part of the renaissance in authentic Catholic education that began with the New Evangelization movement under Saint John Paul II, which called for the laity to take a much larger and more intentional role in spreading the Good News of Jesus Christ. Consequently, we consider parents the primary educators of their children, with schools there to assist parents in forming "Smart Saints". Truth, beauty, goodness, prayer, and worship permeate our approach, with Christ at the source and summit of all we do, for, as the Catechism observes, the purpose of a Catholic education is to know, love, and serve God.
Job Description
SFCCA seeks an applicant who is devoutly Catholic, ideally classically trained, and has experience working at a Classical Catholic school in the elementary grades.

At this introductory logic level, students are introduced to the Medieval and Early Modern European Eras. The incumbent is expected to teach all or most of these subjects.

Application Process
