JOB ANNOUNCEMENT
Middle & High School Science and Mathematics Teacher
Saint Francis Classical Catholic Academy in Bally Pennsylvania (SFCCA) a new independent school in its second year of operations is seeking a joyful faith-filled and intellectually inspiring educator to become its new Middle & High School Mathematics and Science Teacher for the 25-26 Academic Year. Nestled in the bucolic rolling hills of Butter Valley Berks County Saint Francis is located on the beautiful campus of Most Blessed Sacrament Parish (MBS) the oldest Catholic church in the original Thirteen Colonies (1741). SFCCA is an apostolate of MBS and operates with the full blessing of the Diocese of Allentown. There has been a school at this site continually operating since 1743 and SFCCA is proud to carry-on that legacy of evangelization and catechesis that began when intrepid Jesuit Missionary Theodore Schneider began teaching classes thirty-three years prior to Americas Declaration of Independence. It is truly back to the future as we seek to form missionary disciples who can spread the Gospel everywhere.
Year One Success/Year Two Growth
In its first year of operations SFCCA attracted 50 students from 30 families in all grades PK-8 and in year two we have managed to double enrollment to a little under 100 students from 50 families including a new high school program with a single 9th/10th grade cohort. With that growth and more anticipated for next year we now need a new Mathematics and Science Teacher to better serve this growing portion of our student body.
Saint Francis sees itself as part of the renaissance in authentic Catholic education that began with the New Evangelization movement under Saint John Paul II which called for the laity to take a much larger and more intentional role in spreading the Good News of Jesus Christ. Consequently we consider parents the primary educators of their children with schools there to assist parents in forming Smart Saints. Truth beauty goodness prayer and worship permeate our approach with Christ at the source and summit of all we do for as the Catechism observes the purpose of a Catholic education is to know love and serve God.
