The 4th grade class is self contained and teachers teach all subjects. In addition, teachers assist or lead 1-2 specials (art, music, PE, and drama). You do not need a teaching certification nor formal teaching experience to apply. We will teach you everything you need to know.

The right applicant may have experience homeschooling or working with homeschool children, ministry in your Catholic parish, teaching Religious Education or Catechism classes, teaching your own children, or perhaps teaching in a classical or private school (although not required).

Regina Caeli Academy (www.rcahybrid.org), is a classical homeschool academy in the Catholic tradition. RCA is a national organization that offers instruction in a formal Socratic classroom setting on Mondays and Thursdays. The positions are hourly, and complimentary childcare/nursery is provided.

The ideal applicant will have strong communication skills, good organization, timeliness, a traditional view of the student/teacher relationship, and must be living the Catholic faith day-to-day, including having received all the sacraments appropriate to his or her state in life.

All staff complete a background check and RCA Safe Child training prior to teaching at Regina Caeli Academy. Additionally, staff members are required to have completed Safe and Sacred training through the diocese. If you have not already completed this, we will assist you in doing so.

Hours are Mondays and Thursdays 9:15am-3:45pm. Lesson plans and curriculum are provided for you. Depending on the date of hire, there may be an opportunity to shadow the current teacher prior to taking over.
