    Description

    National Cathedral School seeks a full-time physical education teacher and a middle and upper school coach beginning August 14, 2025. The successful candidate can expect to teach Lower School physical education classes (grades 4-6) as well as coach three seasons of Middle School (grade 7-8) and Upper School sports (grades 9-12). The workday for this position is typically 9:30am to 6:00pm or later when coaching athletic competitions. Based on experience, the salary for this position ranges from $65,000-$140,000 and includes a comprehensive benefits package along with support for professional development.

    Teachers in the physical education department at NCS are committed to a student-centered pedagogy, skill development, and the positive benefits of experiences outside of the classroom. The successful candidate must be able to teach fundamental, age-appropriate motor skills and concepts combined with a variety of sport specific skills. Sportsmanship, teamwork, and lifelong habits for a healthy, active lifestyle are the foundation of the physical education curriculum.

    NCS is looking for an enthusiastic and positive candidate with the experience and knowledge to support the Athletic Department’s goals. Qualified candidates hold a bachelor's degree (physical education, kinesiology, or nutrition and health preferred) and have pertinent teaching as well as playing and/or coaching experience at the high school or collegiate level.

    All faculty are involved in the life of the school through a variety of means such as leading a club, coaching a sport, or serving on a committee. Additionally, community members attend school functions, including but not limited to chapel and cathedral services, assemblies, and special events.

    The National Cathedral School is grounded in the Episcopal promise to honor the dignity of every human being. We believe a diverse, equitable, and inclusive community fosters intellectual excellence and empathy needed to amplify the collective power of young women to enrich and improve a dynamic world. We therefore seek candidates who will embrace diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging to ensure a strongly connected and engaged community in and outside of the classroom.
