Humanities Teacher

St. Jerome Institute Humanities Teacher Hyattsville, MD·Full time The St. Jerome Institute is looking to hire a teacher of Humanities for the 2026-2027 school year. About St. Jerome Institute St. Jerome Institute (SJI), is a co-ed, classical liberal arts high school in the Catholic tradition. We have a campus in Washington, DC and will be opening a campus in Fall Church, SJI NOVA, in August 2026. SJI has reinvented traditional education to meet the challenges of our time. Our curriculum opens the most fundamental questions of the human heart at the very moment when young men and women are longing to understand themselves and their place in the world. Shoulder to shoulder with great thinkers, writers, artists, and saints, and led by the light of the Catholic intellectual tradition, we embark on a grand journey of academic excellence and joyful self-discovery. Description The Humanities Teacher will guide students through the Seminar in the Humanities in which students will take up the deepest questions of human existence through oral and written reflection upon significant literary and artistic works. This writing-intensive study, at once historical and thematic, aims at cultivating thought and imagination by incorporating students into the Great Tradition of Christian Humanism. The seminar will focus on complete primary works, although reference and supplemental material will be used to give a more thorough understanding of the historical events, philosophic principles, and artistic expressions informing each work. Successful applicants will demonstrate a flourishing intellectual and moral life, a comprehensive understanding of the SJI Educational Plan, as well as pedagogical expertise in the seminar method. #J-18808-Ljbffr
