Job Description

Ashwood Waldorf School Is Seeking Applications for a Full-Time Class Teacher for Fall 2026.

Would you like to join a Waldorf school with a harmonious and stable faculty, a strong board, and a supportive parent body? Would you like to live on a spectacular coastline, filled with pastoral farmlands, pine forests, and charming New England villages? Ashwood Waldorf School (parent-child through 8th grade) is seeking an enthusiastic, experienced, Waldorf-trained lead teacher for one of our mixed-age grades classes beginning fall 2026.

Situated on a beautiful 30-acre hillside campus with views of the nearby Camden Hills, Ashwood is a small, thriving Waldorf school in its 35th year. We currently have approximately 80 students enrolled. Our grade school building is beautifully designed with spacious sun-filled classrooms and doors leading directly out to our wooded playground and extensive network of trails.

Our faculty shares beliefs that guide us in our work: a willingness to grow and develop, both individually and as a school; to work mindfully; to teach creatively and with love; and to nurture a supportive, diverse, and active community. We have a strong in-house mentoring program and master teachers visit on a regular basis. Nearby Camden has a branch of the Anthroposophical Society and several ongoing study groups.

The colleague we seek will bring a passion for Waldorf teaching, strong leadership skills, and a commitment to supporting the life of the school as a whole. The grade school teachers are a close-knit team who often teach each other's classes. Within the grade school we have a lower grades (1-4) and an upper grades (5-8) team. All of our classes are mixed-age. Benefits include dental insurance, money towards health insurance, 100% tuition remission, short-term disability insurance, life insurance, and faculty development support.

Nearby Camden and Rockland Harbors are home to Windjammers, yachts, and working fishermen. Opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts (boating, skiing, hiking, camping, etc.) abound. Acadia National Park is two hours to the north. The midcoast area enjoys a rich and diverse cultural life. The Rockport and Camden Opera Houses and the Strand Theater in Rockland offer a broad selection of live performances and films. There are ample opportunities for artistic endeavors, educational enrichment, and alternative healing. Several local farms practice biodynamics and offer produce for sale. Maine’s two largest cities, Portland and Bangor—homes to notable symphonies, museums, great restaurants, and professional theater companies—are both an hour-and-a-half away.

For more information or to apply, please contact Jeremy Clough at jclough@ashwoodwaldorf.org. Please send a letter of interest, resume, and contact information for three professional references.
