Choate Rosemary Hall

Choate Rosemary Hall is a boarding and day school in Wallingford, Connecticut. It serves 700 to 1,000 students in high school plus a post-graduate year. The school has no religious affiliation. Its campus sits between New Haven and Hartford, with train access to New York and Boston.

Teaching here blends classroom work with residential life. Faculty often teach, advise, and coach. Many live on campus in dorm apartments. That means students are also your neighbors at breakfast, at games, and on weekend duty. It is a demanding rhythm, but it puts faculty at the center of the school rather than on its edges.

The school is well resourced. Choate Rosemary Hall reported about $88 million in revenue and more than $710 million in net assets in 2023. That base typically supports competitive salaries, subsidized on-campus housing for residential staff, term-time meals, retirement contributions, and professional development funds. In Connecticut, where housing costs run high, the housing piece often matters as much as the salary line.

Hiring covers the usual academic departments: English, math, science, history, world languages, and arts. Coaching and dorm roles sit alongside those teaching posts. Staff searches run in admission, advancement, athletics, and operations. A recent opening for Director of Alumni Engagement points to steady activity on the advancement side.

For teachers who want a mid-sized residential campus with real depth, Choate Rosemary Hall is a serious option in the Northeast.
