7-12 Industrial Arts Teacher

RSU 29 is seeking a skilled, safety-conscious, and “hands-on” Industrial Arts Teacher to inspire the next generation of builders, makers, and engineers at Houlton Middle High School.

Responsibilities

• Deliver engaging lessons in woodworking, and our construction trades program.
• Facilitate student-led projects that encourage problem-solving and critical thinking.
• Maintain, inventory and troubleshoot shop machinery and hand tools to ensure a functional learning space.

Qualifications and Skills

• Maine DOE Endorsement, (700) Industrial Arts/Technology Education.
• Strong background in trades including: Carpentry, Metalwork, Construction, HVAC or a degree in Technology Education preferred.
• Patience, a high degree of organization, and the ability to manage a high-energy, high-activity classroom environment.
