    Pacifica Christian High School 3.8company rating

    Special Education Teacher Job 24 miles from Long Beach

    All candidates should go to the Pacifica website at ****************************************************** to apply. Candidates should apply using the link provided above. Pacifica Christian High School is looking for full-time faculty in a variety of subject areas for the 2025-26 school year. Ideal candidates hold an advanced degree in education, a specific field, and/or equivalent experience. The ideal candidate is also mature in Christian faith, with significant, sustained investment in a local church community and a life rich in devotion and/or spiritual discipline. We expect all Pacifica employees to support our community-wide project to use academics, extracurriculars, and personal relationships as a means of grace to help all involved become more fully human in the recognition and restoration of the image of God within us. Duties Teach 5 sections across the humanities department including but not limited to history, philosophy, and theology. Support students in the process of becoming college-ready Maintain a growth mindset and work with administration to set and achieve goals related to professional development. Uphold Pacifica's standards of personal presentation, preparation, punctuality, professional courtesy, and discretion. Embody and demonstrate enthusiasm and support of the school's mission and values. Effectively integrate Christian faith and worldview into the curriculum. Participate actively in Pacifica's campus community, both inside and outside of the classroom. Develop strong relationships with students, parents, and colleagues. OUR MISSION Pacifica Christian High School is a liberal arts high school devoted to teaching young men and women from all neighborhoods to think critically and wisely, instilling heartfelt joy and interest in learning, while encouraging lives of faith, character, and service to the glory of God. “Pacifica Christian is…” Pacifica is an independent Christian high school in the heart of Santa Monica, California. We were founded in 2005 and our first class of students graduated in 2008. “...a liberal arts high school…” We believe that Pacifica provides a truly distinct version of a classical liberal arts education, incorporating arts and sciences, language, philosophy, and theology into our core graduation requirements. Pacifica is a college preparatory experience that is designed to teach students how to think, not what to think. “...devoted to teaching young men and women…” Pacifica is intentionally a coeducational experience, as young men and women learn together in a community of scholars, athletes, artists, entrepreneurs, scientists, and philosophers. A distinction of our student body is that they love to come to school, and we would have it no other way. “...from all neighborhoods…” Our campus is unlike any other private high school in Los Angeles, integrating families from over 50 different zip codes into a close-knit, supportive community. Pacifica is a welcoming environment for people of all walks of life and all faiths (or no faith at all) and dedicated to Christian precepts and values in all we do. Financial aid is crucial to ensuring our community is accessible for all families and has bridged the gap for hundreds of students since the school's inception. “...to think critically and wisely…” Students are faced with a new problem in their education: not a lack of resources, but an infinite number of uncurated sources that can have a profound influence at a critical time in their intellectual development. Pacifica students learn to discern what is true, what is right, and what is good from teachers who pursue integrity and wisdom in their own lives and who are committed to providing mentorship and quality instruction. “...instilling heartfelt joy in learning…” High school should not be a competitive proving ground, but unfortunately, the college landscape has impacted the virtue of learning for learning's sake. Pacifica students are encouraged to find a balance between rigor and relaxation-a practice intentionally implemented throughout the class schedule, homework load, and coursework itself. “...while encouraging lives of faith, character, and service to the glory of God.” As a Christian school, Pacifica students learn from faculty who live out their faith. In the classroom and through other experiences, students are encouraged to examine their own relationship with God by exploring life's most important questions, contemplating meaning and purpose, and pursuing goodness and truth in their day to day lives. As a community, we daily strive to love God with hearts, souls, and minds, and to love our neighbors as ourselves (Matthew 22:34-40).
