Teaching and Staff Jobs at Hillside School

Hillside School in Longmont, Colorado, serves students with dyslexia and other learning differences through specialized instruction designed to match how their brains actually learn. Enrollment stays under 100 students, enabling small class sizes and diagnostic precision that mainstream schools cannot sustain. The school exists explicitly to help students reach their academic potential—a mission that shapes every hiring decision and instructional approach.

Teaching at Hillside School means working with students who have often been labeled as failures elsewhere. Many arrive convinced they cannot succeed academically. Faculty here use evidence-based methods: structured literacy instruction, multisensory approaches, and careful diagnostic assessment. Progress is visible and swift. Student confidence rebuilds within weeks, not years.

Longmont sits at the base of the Colorado Front Range, roughly 30 miles north of Denver. The region offers lower cost of living than most independent school markets, direct access to hiking and outdoor recreation, and a growing community of educators focused on learning differences. The town's proximity to Denver provides urban amenities without urban price tags.

Hillside School hires year-round for classroom teachers, literacy specialists, special educators, and support staff. The school's strong financial position—with substantial net assets and stable revenue—allows consistent investment in professional development and instructional materials, unusual stability for specialized schools. This stability supports the kind of long-term curriculum building that transforms student outcomes.

For educators whose expertise in specialized instruction aligns with Hillside's mission, the school offers direct alignment between your skills and institutional need within a mission-driven environment.
