Westchester Country Day School

Westchester Country Day School is a college-preparatory day school in High Point, North Carolina, enrolling 301 to 500 students from pre-K through grade 12. Unlike boarding schools, day schools operate on a clock: classes end by mid-afternoon, and faculty go home. That schedule appeals to teachers who want real student relationships without dormitory duty or on-campus living requirements.

The school prioritizes four pillars: moral development, academic rigor, arts, and athletics. Mandarin Chinese and Spanish language programs create ongoing hiring for language teachers. Visual and performing arts sit at the curriculum center, so Westchester Country Day School regularly recruits art and music faculty. Coaches staff programs across all divisions. The day structure protects evenings and weekends—time for family, rest, or side work—while daily classroom contact builds strong teacher-student bonds.

Westchester Country Day School operates from financial strength. Net assets top $11.9 million, and fundraising grew 18 percent recently. That growth reflects parent confidence and typically means stable paychecks, classroom supplies, and curriculum investment. The school's ranking trajectory shows consistent improvement, a marker that leadership hires good teachers and backs them with resources.

The school hires year-round for classroom teachers, language specialists, arts educators, coaches, and administrative roles. Teachers new to independent schools appreciate Westchester Country Day's smaller enrollment: you know every student and parent, but the community feels manageable. Candidates seeking North Carolina teaching jobs with deep student contact and predictable home hours will find a fit here.
