First Grade Teacher

Cedar Springs Learning Center is nestled on five wooded acres in the Sierra Nevada foothills in Placerville, CA. We are part of a rural community with trees to climb and open spaces for creative and cooperative play. We cherish a strong sense of community, a rich festival life, a commitment to compassionate and direct communication and collaboration, founded on the tenets of Waldorf education.

We enthusiastically welcome colleagues who are interested in building an innovative, inclusive community in which children and adults can collaboratively thrive.

Our teachers share a commitment to following the indications of Rudolf Steiner and the developmentally sound curriculum he designed. We work through Anthroposophy to find the inspirations we need to meet the children of our time. We welcome like-minded, Waldorf trained candidates to consider joining our community.

In alignment with our commitment to community health, our program is held four days (Tues‑Fri) in person, with a fifth day reserved for administrative duties, prep, and outreach either on or off campus.

Currently, we are hiring for First Grade.

If you are trained in Waldorf pedagogy (or equivalent) or are on your way to becoming fully qualified, and you have a history of collaborative collegial work, parent education, and strong communication skills, we offer:

• Competitive entry salary
• Mentoring support
• Teacher development opportunities
• Healthy work/life balance
