Working in Independent Schools
Teachers are drawn to work in independent schools because of the autonomy they have together with members of their departments to craft courses and instruction exactly as they think best, the support they receive from administrators and colleagues, and the high quality of the relationships they are able to have with students. For these reasons teachers in independent schools have a high level of satisfaction and a high level of responsibility in shaping the culture of a school and the content of its curriculum. Independent school teachers work very hard but stay in the field because the personal and professional rewards are correspondingly great. |

Abby Guyer - Fifth Grade Teacher
"I love the sense of community and belonging at North Cross. And everyone walks into the classroom each day excited and ready to learn. I love teaching here because teachers are motivated to be the best they can be, and there's always a buzz and excitement about learning."
Kevin Finch - CrossWalk Program Instructor
"I love the size of this school and feel like I really know the kids across the grade levels. Because of the intimate classroom sizes, I get to work with small groups of students and really target exactly what they need. And everyone on the faculty and staff really care about you as a person and your family. It's a very positive place and people want to help you be successful. I also love how beautiful our campus is and how the outdoors is integrated with our buildings. There is so much care put into the design and landscaping of the campus."
