Job description

Veritas Classical Academy in Southern California is growing. We are seeking outstanding Part Time Art Teacher for grades JK-12 for the 2023-2024 school year.

Teacher applicants must be committed to the historic Christian faith and display a desire to continually grow in their relationships with Jesus Christ. They must fully support and abide by the school’s Statement of Faith, possess a passion for and exhibit academic strength in their fields, demonstrate a commitment to lifelong learning, and exude a love for children. Furthermore, applicants should have a background demonstrating a commitment to classical, Christian education either through college coursework, experience, or other discipline compatible with classical Christian curriculum.

Art Teacher Role:

The art teacher provides instruction in an educational environment where students develop a love for God’s created order as they discover the truth, goodness and beauty of His world through methods consistent with a classical approach to the study of art. An emphasis is placed on a biblical worldview in order to prepare these students for excellence. The goal of the teacher is to fill students with wonder about the world around them creating life-long learners who explore God’s world with diligence and perseverance. Classical art assumes that God is the great artist. Through art, we are discovering God’s beauty. In a classical approach to art, we first learn to delight in God’s beauty and then to imitate God’s artistry. We believe representational art is the foundation of creative art. Beauty attracts us to God’s truth and goodness and magnifies it. Bachelor and/or graduate degrees as well as teaching experience are preferred for all positions. A major or minor in art in undergraduate is preferred.
