Potomac, Maryland, seeks applicants for a full-time Lower School position starting in
August 2026. For 70 years, McLean School has been helping bright students realize
their full potential by providing a comprehensive college preparatory program that

challenges, and seek to build self-confidence in our students. This position requires a
dynamic educator with vision and patience. Most importantly, they will subscribe to
McLean School’s Core Values, our Mission, and our Philosophy, and will seek
passionately to uphold and promote them. Early childhood educators recognize that
play is the work of young children, and they should build on children’s natural curiosity
to promote a love of learning.
The ideal candidate has an advanced degree in Education and experience working with students with learning challenges, including dyslexia, academic performance anxiety, ADHD, organizational issues, and gifted students. As a Lower School Teacher at McLean School, the teacher plays a crucial role in shaping our students' future, skillfully assessing their strengths and areas of challenge to craft lessons that meet their academic needs. Creativity, flexibility, and strong communication skills are a necessity.
