Crane Country Day School is a co-educational Kindergarten-8th grade independent day school located on a beautiful 12-acre campus in Montecito, CA. Crane is dedicated to providing an experiential education characterized by a thoughtful balance of academic challenge and creative expression. We thrive as a community that builds character and confidence while celebrating the joy of learning. At Crane, we understand that how we teach is just as important as what we teach. It is a welcoming and supportive place to work—a rich environment where you will find enthusiastic cooperation, healthy relationships with colleagues, and active professional development.
The Role
Crane Country Day School seeks a versatile and collaborative Upper School Math Teacher to fill a one-year leave replacement position. We are looking for an educator who views mathematics not as a series of rote procedures, but as a language for exploration. This one-year position may be extended beyond June 30, 2027.
The ideal candidate will be comfortable stepping into a high-functioning department to deliver a curriculum that balances rigorous academic challenge with a deep commitment to student well-being. This role is particularly exciting as our 6th-grade program transitions to the Illustrative Mathematics curriculum, a shift that reinforces our belief that "doing deepens discovery" through problem-based learning and student-led inquiry.
