Aug Prep is more than a school, it's a community where excellence, faith, and holistic education come together. We’re not only about high standards but also creating a place where people love to grow, learn, and inspire! We currently serve over 2,400 K4-12 students in our ninth year at our South Campus. We are thrilled to launch our North Campus in the 26-27 school year, initially serving about 300 students in grades K4-6 and 9.

  Jesus is at the center of all we do. Join a team where you can pray together, worship together, and anchor your work in hope.

• Whole-Child Approach:
  From arts to athletics to character education, we nurture students’ minds, bodies, and souls.
• Joy Factor:
  This work is hard, but we work hard to bring JOY in all we do! Things like silly staff competitions, praise and worship sessions, team social events or learning a new skill like pickleball or gardening during a professional development day, we ensure our staff finds JOY with one another too!

In This Role, You Will be responsible for designing and delivering engaging, developmentally appropriate theatre instruction that builds a strong foundation in creative expression, public speaking, and speaking and listening skills. Instruction is intentionally planned and aligned to state standards to support early proficiency in theatre arts. Through Spotlight Theatre, K4–2nd grade students are introduced to the fundamentals of theatre through creative play, storytelling, movement, and group collaboration.

Young actors develop their voice, body, and imagination as they bring stories to life, explore character roles, and create their own adventures. Engaging, hands-on activities help students strengthen focus, cooperation, and confidence in expressing themselves both on and off the stage.
