Chaminade College Preparatory

Chaminade College Preparatory is a Catholic day school in Chatsworth, California, serving over 1,000 students in grades six through twelve. The school operates in the Marianist tradition, which emphasizes community, education, and service to others. That identity shapes hiring priorities and what faculty experience on a daily basis.

Teaching here means working across a seven-year span with the same student population. Many educators watch their pupils grow from early adolescence into college-ready young adults. This continuity builds deeper student relationships than typical four-year high schools allow. Faculty are expected to teach subjects well and also model how faith, intellectual rigor, and social responsibility work together in practice.

The school maintains French and Spanish language programs alongside core offerings in sciences, mathematics, humanities, and English. This breadth creates ongoing hiring needs across multiple disciplines, plus support roles in counseling and administration. Day school schedules allow faculty to maintain life outside campus while staying embedded in student formation.

What sets Chaminade apart is its expectation that teaching integrates academic excellence with ethical development. Teachers know students as whole people, not just test scores. The school hires candidates who see this integration as meaningful work, not an add-on. For educators whose own values align with Catholic social teaching and service, the fit can be genuine.

The Los Angeles area location offers access to urban cultural resources and a suburban campus setting. Faculty join a school where religious identity and academic mission reinforce each other rather than compete.
