Title: Part-time (42%) 4th - 12th grade Vocal Arts Faculty
Reports to: US Division Director
The Miami Valley School (MVS) is a unique learning community that challenges young people of promise to become self-sustaining learners and compassionate global citizens. For 60+ years, MVS has provided a differentiated educational opportunity for families in the Dayton, Ohio, community. Our faculty are educators who are ready to help refine this opportunity as MVS becomes a nationally-recognized leader in experience-based learning.
Here, every member of the MVS community is committed to transformative immersive learning in the classroom and during our Immersion term. Equally important is our commitment to Social Emotional Learning (SEL), through which our students learn the skills and competencies necessary to navigate an ever-shifting world with confidence and curiosity.
The MVS Performing Arts Department creates a continuous learning experience in music and theater arts for students from Early Childhood through 12th grade. Grounded in the Orff method, students in EC-3 have the opportunity to engage in folk songs, movement activities, and pitched percussion performances. Beginning in grade 4, students choose between band, choir and strings ensembles and may continue in their respective discipline through 12th grade. Advanced level ensembles are offered at the middle school level, including an a cappella choir.
