What are the responsibilities and job description for the Pre-K Teacher- September start position at Nativity Community Preschool?
About Nativity Preschool:
At Nativity Community Preschool, we are dedicated to creating a nurturing, stimulating and welcoming environment for all children. Although we offer a Christian atmosphere of caring and acceptance and operate by values that are shared with the Church of the Nativity, we do not teach from the Bible. Our unique programs incorporate a variety of educational theories, while always keeping the child’s best interest in mind and allowing for hands-on, experiential learning.
Our school follows the Northborough Public School's vacation and holiday schedules and is closed for the summer. We are open 9 AM- 3 PM, 5 days a week. Staff schedules are flexible with shifts available as short as 4.5 hours a day up to just over 6 hours a day. Great "mother's" hours!
