Job Description

At Martin Luther School, we believe that every student deserves access to an excellent education, even if their path to school has included challenges, disruption, or trauma.

Our students are bright, capable, and full of potential. What many of them have needed is a school that understands how learning and emotional development are connected. At MLS, strong instruction and social-emotional support are not separate initiatives. They are part of the same commitment to helping students succeed.

Our classrooms are supported by a collaborative team that includes teachers, social workers, behavior specialists, and clinical leaders. Staff work closely together to understand each student, problem-solve challenges, and create environments where students feel safe enough to take academic risks and grow. Teachers here are never working alone. They are part of a thoughtful system that allows both students and educators to do their best work.

We are looking for a Science Teacher who can spark curiosity about how the world works while helping students build the habits of thinking that science requires. The right candidate believes that students learn best when they are encouraged to ask questions, explore ideas, and stay engaged even when learning is challenging.

Education and experience:

  • Bachelor's degree
  • Content area teaching certificate is preferred but not required at the time of hire
  • Teachers will need to obtain a Pennsylvania certification, and the school will support staff in completing the required coursework and process

Benefits include:

  • 3 health insurance plans included, one at no cost to the employee!
  • 2 dental plans to choose from
  • Educational assistance for professional development and Act 48/CEUs
  • 403b retirement plan with organizational match
  • Group Term Life Insurance at no cost to the employee
  • Short and Long-term Disability coverage
  • Generous paid time off and Personal Holidays
  • Funding for employee self-care activities

Martin Luther School is an equal opportunity employer, and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, pregnancy, age, national origin, disability status, genetic information, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
