The School for Ethics and Global Leadership

The School for Ethics and Global Leadership is a boarding school in Washington, DC, enrolling about 150 high school juniors. The school accepts intellectually motivated students from across the United States and structures curriculum around ethics and leadership development. Its DC location gives faculty and students direct access to policy institutions, internships, and speakers that most boarding schools cannot offer.

Teaching here centers on real-world problem-solving. Faculty design courses that connect classroom learning to contemporary challenges and ethics questions students will face as leaders. The school's commitment to student diversity means classrooms bring together different regional and socioeconomic perspectives—a pedagogical strength that shapes how students learn from each other, not just from instructors.

Because enrollment stays under 200, faculty know every student across the residential community. Teachers typically teach, advise dorm residents, and mentor student leaders within the same tight group. This concentration of roles demands sustained energy but creates clarity about impact on individual students. Most faculty live on or near campus.

The School for Ethics and Global Leadership hires year-round for faculty positions and residential staff. Most openings appear before the academic year. The school seeks candidates aligned with its mission who thrive in small, residential boarding environments where multiple responsibilities are standard.

Compensation and benefits reflect DC location and residential commitment. Packages include salary, on-campus housing, meals, and health coverage. For teachers drawn to leadership development and ethical reasoning work in a selective boarding setting, this school offers a distinctive platform and clear community role.
