Upper School English, Long-Term Substitute

Overview of St. Stephen's and St. Agnes School

St. Stephen's and St. Agnes School is an affirming and collegial community committed to our mission to "pursue goodness as well as knowledge and to honor the unique value of each of our members as a child of God in a caring community." SSSAS is an age 3 to Grade 12 Episcopal day school located on three campuses six miles from Washington, D.C., in the beautiful and historic Alexandria, Va.

We believe that educating the whole child by tending to their individual academic, social/emotional, cultural, and physical needs prepares them to be knowledgeable, kind, and empathetic citizens in a complex world. Combining a rigorous academic program with outstanding opportunities in the arts, athletics, and service learning for our students, SSSAS is a community that values diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, and we seek candidates who share these same values.

Our culture promotes lifelong learning, and employees have a wealth of opportunities available to them to continue expanding their knowledge of both their disciplines and their field of education. Cultural competency workshops for all faculty and staff, regular, small-group DEIB exploration/workshops, support for graduate studies, summer study grants, and conferences (e.g., People of Color Conference, the National Association of Independent School Annual Conference, and CASE-NAIS) are just a few of the ways in which we support and encourage our Saints faculty and staff to continue to develop and learn in their field and as part of our community.

This position is for a long-term substitute in Upper School English classes in the spring of 2026. The candidate will be responsible for teaching two sections of 11th grade English, one section of AP Language and Composition in 11th grade, and one section of 12th grade English.
