Christchurch School

Christchurch School is a boarding and day school serving roughly 250 high school students in Christchurch, Virginia, along the Rappahannock River. The Episcopal community emphasizes college preparation and character development in a structured environment where enrollment stays intentionally small. This size shapes everything about faculty life here.

Teachers work across multiple student contexts. A math instructor teaches calculus in the morning, supervises the dormitory hallway at night, and coaches rowing on the river. This overlap—classroom, dorm, athletic field, dining hall—means faculty know students as whole people, not just names in a gradebook. It demands more from teachers, but it also places them at the genuine center of school life rather than its periphery.

The school hires year-round for English, mathematics, sciences, and humanities. Spanish language instructors and English as an Alternative Language specialists fill additional roles. Beyond teaching, Christchurch seeks residential life coordinators, coaches, and administrative staff. Candidates with boarding school experience or language program credentials will find natural fit here.

An Episcopal mission shapes the culture without requiring religious affiliation from faculty. The school invests in its people—stable enrollment and steady fundraising growth suggest financial health and sustained commitment to competitive faculty resources. For teachers considering a mid-Atlantic boarding option rather than the larger New England circuit, this school offers genuine relationship-driven work alongside clear advancement pathways in a Virginia river valley setting.
