About The Clariden School:
The Clariden School is a not-for-profit, private, fully-accredited, college-preparatory school serving approximately 250 students PreK–Grade 12 in North Texas (Dallas-Fort Worth area). Clariden works to ignite student curiosity and problem-solving skills by first providing a program that addresses the whole student. With a focus on Problem-Based Learning (PBL) and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math), character-based kindness, and hands-on field study, our goal is to equip students for the jobs of tomorrow and to be contributing citizens in their local & global communities. Clariden is an International Baccalaureate World School for the Diploma Programme, having begun offering coursework in Fall 2024.
Employees at The Clariden School are expected to be respectful, responsible, self-directed, growth-minded individuals who are interested in not only providing the best for students but also developing and honing their skills as professionals. Employees are responsible for providing their students with appropriate learning activities and experiences in the academic subjects assigned to the educator to help the students fulfill their potential for intellectual, emotional, physical, and social growth.
Clariden is currently enjoying growth in its student body size and curricular/co-curricular programming. A new state-of-the-art Upper School STEAM building opened in Fall 2022 and Clariden just completed a safety and security project on campus.
