Rockwern Academy, Cincinnati's pluralistic Jewish Day School, is looking for a full-time teacher to teach Judaic Studies and Hebrew for the 2026- 2027 school year. The teacher will ideally also lead a Shacharit (morning prayer service) for their students some mornings.
Based on the candidate's skills and background, there are options for which specific grades will be taught, within the first through eighth grade range.

And, you act as a professional who is committed to the success of Rockwern Academy and its students.
