The Dance Conservatory (TDC) Fall Dance Teachers

The St. Paul’s Schools is pleased to announce several dance teacher openings for the 2024-2025 academic year.

School Overview

Voted one of Baltimore’s top workplaces, the St. Paul’s Schools is a family of independent schools located in Brooklandville, Maryland. With more than 1,400 students from ages 6 months to grade 12, St. Paul’s Pre and Lower School (coed), St. Paul’s School for Girls, and St. Paul’s School for Boys share a 120-acre campus, an Episcopal affiliation, and a focus on developing confident well-rounded students who will use their education and ethics to improve the world. In July 2018, the schools unified under the umbrella of The St. Paul's Schools, with a single board of trustees and one president, but each school retains its individual traditions and its gender-specific programs. A coordinated structure allows The St. Paul’s Schools to preserve the small-school feel within each school while sharing resources and certain programs to maximize opportunities for students. With St. Paul’s unique model, boys and girls are taught together and separately at just the right times in their development.

The Dance Conservatory (TDC) at The St. Paul’s Schools has been designed for beginning through advanced dancers to identify, nurture, develop, and train the Baltimore community’s children in the art of dance. The program offers students the opportunity to foster and enrich their dance education through the development of technical proficiency, artistic growth, and creativity.

TDC is currently accepting applications for dance teachers in all styles including ballet, modern, jazz, tap, acro, musical theater and primary ballet for the 2024-2025 academic season. Fall programming starts August 28, 2024 and goes through approximately June 6, 2025.

Candidates must be experienced in teaching dance and should have excellent classroom management skills, as well as ideas for creative lesson planning in order to captivate a range of students. In addition, the candidate should have a comprehensive understanding of student gross and fine motor skill development, as well as extensive performance experience.

The St. Paul’s Schools are committed to creating a supportive learning environment where all individuals are valued for their unique contributions and are able to achieve their highest potential. We strongly believe that a diverse and inclusive environment is the best learning environment for our students and prepares them to live, work, and thrive in an increasingly global and multicultural community. We reject all prejudice, particularly those based on race, national and ethnic origin, religion, socioeconomic status, gender identity, sexual orientation, and physical characteristics.
