Georgetown Visitation, founded in 1799, is an all-girls high school rooted in the Roman Catholic faith and Salesian tradition, committed to educating young women from diverse backgrounds. We are a faith-centered community dedicated to educational excellence, enriched by co-curricular and service programs. We guide our students as they integrate the search for truth with the pursuit of knowledge and dedicate their God-given gifts to making the world a better place.
Visitation is currently searching for a full-time math teacher for the 2025 - 2026 school year. The ideal candidate is energetic and eager to educate and guide young women at this critical time in their lives, as well as to collaborate closely with department colleagues to create an excellent, comprehensive, and cohesive program in mathematics at the school. Additionally, candidates should possess a clear vision for what success at high levels of mathematics requires, be able to challenge talented young women to grow in critical thinking and creative problem solving, and implement teaching methods that serve diverse learning styles.
As educators in the Visitation tradition, our teachers form lives as well as impart knowledge. We’re seeking a candidate who can help students understand how their math skills can be applied to address real-world challenges, nurturing and inspiring students as they learn to cultivate their skills for the betterment of the world around us. We seek to create challenging and joyful classrooms that cultivate a lifelong love of learning. To learn more about what it means to be a Visitation educator, we encourage you to read Educating the Mind and Heart, a brief pamphlet that outlines the six goals of a Visitation education.
Successful candidates should have a minimum of a bachelor’s degree in a related field with a strong academic background and at least 2 - 3 years’ teaching experience in a secondary school classroom (similar experience in a college setting will be considered).
