Turning Sun School (preschool ages 1-5) is seeking candidates interested in working as Full Time or Substitute Educators at our East Lake, North Druid Hills, Gwinnett, and Tucker area campuses. Full Time Educator positions are currently available for the 2019-20 academic year—Full Time positions are salaried with paid vacation. Substitute Educator positions are open now and offer flexible hours, scheduled based on need between 8:00am and 4:00pm, Monday through Friday. Hours until 6pm may also be offered at our East Lake and Tucker locations. 

Turning Sun is a progressive preschool community inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach and place-based education, focusing on our local community and natural world.

In addition to a strong desire to learn and grow as an educator, applicants must be organized, reliable, open-minded, creative, kind, and have a passion for young children and families. Preschool experience is preferred but not required. Experience with project-based learning, nature/hiking, the Atlanta community, the arts, and the Reggio Emilia approach are pluses.

Company

Turning Sun School is on a mission to build an inclusive, collaborative community that inspires children to realize their infinite capabilities, explore and appreciate their natural world and local community, and discover the joy of learning. Children are our future. We all want the best for them. But in our haste to prepare them for kindergarten (and the world), we must never tell them how to think. The minute we discourage children from questioning and thinking independently, we stifle the magical qualities they have yet to develop and offer to our world.

At Turning Sun, our collaborative community of educators and families works to instill a love of learning in our students. That means learning together to take risks, fail, make messes, develop incorrect theories, and to feel safe in thinking differently. Different is good. Different is beautiful. Different is essential.
