Position Summary
Regina Pacis Academy, an independent, Catholic classical school located in Norwalk, Connecticut, serving students in grades Pre-K-8, is seeking applicants for Early Childhood, Elementary, or Middle School Teachers.

While all of our current positions are filled, we are eager to meet candidates who understand and appreciate our unique Catholic classical school and desire to join our school community.

Seeking a career at Regina Pacis Academy is not just any job at just any school. It is not your typical 9 to 5 job. Nor is it the typical Catholic school. Regina Pacis Academy is quite literally on the front lines of the battle for the eternal souls of our children. Parents choose us to educate their children because we are the best at what we do: forming young men and women who—through their commitment to live by the Catholic faith — will transform and advance human culture. That advancement is not for the purposes of nebulous vague social justice principles or for comfort, money, or power. Our students go out into the world and seek to advance the culture around them toward virtue and heavenly beatitude.

Teaching as a Vocation
At Regina Pacis Academy, our educational approach is centered around enabling our students to pursue and achieve academic excellence through a classical model, while immersing them in an authentically Catholic environment in which they will be exposed to the goodness, the truth, and the beauty of God. Successful educators at our school will not only be those who can employ the classical approach well and encourage each child to achieve their full God-given potential, but who are themselves living witnesses of their Catholic faith who desire to hand down to our students the faith which they have received.

We are a classical school that unapologetically integrates the intellectual and cultural traditions of the Catholic Church into everything we do and every class we teach. If that sounds like your personal mission in life, then we want to hear from you!

Qualifications
• A faithful, practicing Catholic, willing to make a formal Profession of Faith and take an Oath of Fidelity to the Magisterium of the Roman Catholic Church
• An experienced, certified teacher having at least 2 years of classroom teaching or tutoring experience
• An individual who is organized, prompt, and adaptable to changes in the classroom
• An educator who loves learning, strives to help each student grasp the concepts taught, and manages the classroom with a firm but loving manner
