Welcome to the home of LEADERS
Mission: Culver educates its students for leadership and responsible citizenship in society by developing and nurturing the whole individual, mind, spirit, and body, through integrated programs that emphasize the cultivation of character.
Culver Academies is a private boarding school. We enroll students and employ faculty and staff from across the United States and around the world. Culver Academies seeks diverse and talented educators who value the core commitments of all Culver faculty, support the Culver mission and principles, and embrace the Culver teaching and learning model. At Culver, we are always looking to strengthen our organizational leadership by adding outstanding talent to our faculty and staff whose passion is to serve our students. Located on the shore of Lake Maxinkuckee, Culver Academies encompasses 1,800 acres of green hills and woodlands, and a historic collegiate-like campus with beautiful Gothic architecture. Our location in Culver, Indiana, offers the best of both worlds; a beautiful, serene setting with access to large cities nearby, including the home of the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana. We are also less than two hours away from Chicago and Indianapolis.
Culver Academies, a boarding high school of approximately 840 students in north-central Indiana, is seeking qualified candidates for a full-time World Languages and Cultures faculty position effective August 2025.
Qualified candidates will hold at least a BA in French with several years of teaching experience at the secondary school level preferred. Teachers with experience teaching in a constructivist environment or have familiarity with designing proficiency-based curricula and integrated performance assessments are strongly encouraged to apply. Responsibilities related to curriculum and level leadership is a possibility for a qualified and experienced candidate.
Responsibilities include the ability to teach all levels of language and culture from introductory to college level in a 4 x 4 intensive block schedule. Teachers in the World Languages and Cultures department teach two sections at any one time, with an average total student load of 32 during a term of French classes. While Culver is not a triple-threat boarding school, all faculty and staff commit to making significant contributions to the athletic or residential life program of the school, as personal interest and institutional needs dictate.
Culver Academies places a premium on a teaching and learning culture in which faculty routinely talk about practice, observe each other in the practice of teaching, create curriculum together, and teach each other what they know about teaching and learning. The successful candidate will collaborate with the French team as well as a multilingual team in order to design the student experience.
Successful candidates will have a commitment to fostering belonging and inclusion in concert with our student-generated Diversity Statement. Interested candidates who find themselves aligned with Culver’s Teaching and Learning Model and supportive of the Commitments of Culver Educator should express interest by completing the application link below.
