What are the responsibilities and job description for the Middle School Science Teacher position at Emmanuel Christian School of Fort Wayne?
About Emmanuel Christian School
At Emmanuel Christian School, we believe education is about more than academics—it’s about forming students who are confident, curious, and grounded in truth.
We partner closely with families to nurture each student’s spiritual growth and deepen their relationship with Jesus Christ, while providing strong academic instruction in a Christ-centered environment.
Our classrooms are intentionally small (12:1 student-teacher ratio), allowing teachers to truly know their students and invest in their growth—academically, socially, and spiritually.
At ECS, students are supported, challenged, and known, creating a place where they can truly thrive in both faith and learning.
