Summit Christian School – K4–8 Job Overview Summit Christian School is seeking a passionate and dedicated 5th Grade Teacher to join our close-knit community of educators. We’re looking for a teacher who loves Jesus, loves children, and creates a classroom where faith and learning grow side by side. Experience with differentiated instruction, hands‑on learning, and classroom management is highly valued. If you’re a parent, after the SUFS scholarship (available to all Florida students), you will pay no tuition for your child to attend Summit.

We are committed to providing an excellent education—rooted in faith and supported by strong academic data. About Us At Summit Christian School, our mission is to minister to students and their families by providing an excellent education rooted in God’s Word. We inspire students to be lifelong learners who use their gifts to transform the world for the glory of Christ.

We are passionate about two things: growing in our relationship with Jesus Christ and pursuing academic excellence that reaches every learner. Our teachers see their work as both a calling and a ministry, helping students develop minds that think deeply and hearts that follow Christ fully. We partner with families in their child’s spiritual and academic growth and believe that education should shape lifelong learners who seek to glorify God in all they do.

If this sounds like you, we’d love to explore the possibility of adding you to our team!
