Aloha High School
Aloha High School is seeking a qualified individual to serve as Lead Teacher in the High School for the 2008-09 academic year. During the initial period prior to opening, the Lead Teacher will need to be task oriented and capable of organizing the details associated with starting a high school and teaching in the first year of a start up. Current Board members are all passionate parents with children in the Haleakala Waldorf School, and are dedicated to providing the High School experience that the Waldorf philosophy indicates. By employing a Waldorf trained Coordinator, Waldorf trained teachers and offering a Waldorf curriculum, the Aloha High School will be moving in the same direction as fully accredited Waldorf Schools. The ideal candidate will have extensive Waldorf High School experience in teaching and preferably also in administration, a BA or higher, and will have completed Waldorf teacher training. Maui currently has limited alternatives for High School students. Many parents of Haleakala Waldorf School are in support of this pioneering effort, while many outside the Waldorf community seek a viable option, especially in the upcountry area of Maui. Maui offers a rich and unique cultural environment, an incredible weather climate, combined with the abundant health-conscious community who seeks alternatives to the current high school choices - mainstream public schools or the highly academic college prep high school. Hawaii is experiencing a growth in attendance to private schools. All of this combined with a highly motivated Board of Directors, makes for an inviting and interesting opportunity for a highly skilled Coordinator and teachers. Life on Maui has so much to offer including a multitude of micro-climates, beautiful volcanic mountains with country side nature hikes, incredible oceans and beaches with surfing, kite-surfing, windsurfing, snorkeling, sailing and whale watching. The cultural attractions of Maui include the Maui Arts and Cultural Center, which features international films, touring plays, ballet, art exhibits and concerts of every genre and Maui’s own Maui Film Festival. The Haleakala Waldorf School, with its 22 years of love and caring of our growing children, brings spiritual depth to our community through festival celebrations and spirited teachers engaged in anthroposophy who look forward to this high school initiative. Biodynamic and organic farming initiatives are also active on our island. We are looking for individuals to join us who have training in Waldorf education, strong teaching abilities, collegial cooperation and teamwork, strong communication skills, and a commitment to professional development. Salary & Benefits: Our 2008-2009 salary offered will be commensurate with experience. Full benefits are available. Tuition benefits are included for faculty children. Applicants should submit a letter of intent, a resume, and references to Marion Haller at Marion@Haller-Stroud.com, by Fax to 808-573-0993 or by mail to Aloha High School, Attn.
