Teach where children love to learn.

Join the faculty and staff of the Waldorf School of San Diego — a Pre-K–12 school, two campuses, here since 1981. We hire teachers, specialists, and support staff who want a school worth staying at, one that takes teaching seriously.

Our teachers stay: many for well past twenty years. The reason is not the package, though that is competitive. It is the work: small classes, a Waldorf curriculum taken seriously, and a school led by the people closest to the classroom.

Why work here

A school that invests in its teachers.

WSSD has educated children across San Diego for more than four decades — Pre-K through Grade 12, on two campuses, with families travelling from Oceanside to Tijuana to Alpine. We offer competitive salaries, full health, dental, and vision coverage, an employer-sponsored 401(k), genuine professional-development support, and tuition remission for employees’ children.

More than the package: a collaborative faculty, ongoing Waldorf training and mentoring, the freedom to teach the craft as it is meant to be taught, and the chance to do this work properly.
