Religious School Teacher

Agudas Achim Congregation is looking for two passionate innovative 6th grade educators to join our Religious School community for 2024-2025. We are confident that the right people are out there who are ready to add their skill, energy, and experience to our committed, creative, and affable staff.

We seek a 6th grade Hebrew teacher whose focus will be on Shabbat tefillah, theology, and pre-b’mitzvah preparation and a 6th grade Judaics Studies teacher who will work with students to examine the trends and political movements that shaped world Jewry in the 20th century and the implications of these trends for our lives today. Sunday morning classes run from 9am – 12pm for 25 sessions over the course of the school year.

Agudas Achim is a warm, welcoming, Conservative congregation in Alexandria, Virginia with approximately 525 families. Our program emphasizes experiential learning, inclusion, and relationship building as keys to empowering our students to develop Jewish literacy and a strong Jewish identity. We pride ourselves on having caring involved families who support the Jewish programming we offer.

Position begins with orientation on August 25, 2024. The first day of classes is on Sunday, Sept. 15, 2024. Pay is competitive for our area.

To apply, send your resume and a brief cover letter to Chaya Silver, Education and Youth Director at [email protected]. Feel free to reach out if you have questions about either of these positions
