Temple Emanuel Early Childhood Center, located in the greater DC metropolitan area, is accepting applications for talented early childhood teachers to join our innovative teaching team for the 2015-2016 school year.
The foundation of our full-day, year-round program is built upon creating and maintaining a culture of learning informed by the Reggio-Emilia approach to education and the values of our progressive Reform Jewish context, which includes respecting the diversity amongst our families and staff.
Our faculty co-teaches in an environment that honors our culture of dialogue and research based on the image of the child as curious, competent and capable of co-constructing knowledge. Our teachers view themselves as life-long learners who constantly challenge themselves to grow professionally and find joy in being part of dynamic, collaborative community.
