Join Our Classroom Crew!

Now Hiring: Bilingual (English-Spanish) Lead Teachers

¡Buscamos maestros bilingües! We're Georgetown Hill Early School, and we're growing our bilingual program — which means we need nurturing, energetic, endlessly patient educators fluent in both English and Spanish to join our teaching team. If that's you, we'd love to meet you!

We're a local non-profit preschool with a big mission: bring teachers, children, and families together to create an early childhood experience that's second to none. We've been doing this in Maryland since 1980 ( see our story here ) — so we know a thing or two about what makes a classroom feel like home.

Why You'll Love It Here

We take care of the people who take care of our kids. Expect a positive, team-first environment where your voice actually gets heard, your growth is genuinely encouraged, and your impact doesn't go unnoticed.

• Generous PTO + paid holidays
• Paid planning time
• Employer-subsidized medical insurance
• Dental, vision, disability & life insurance
• 401(k) with employer match
• Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) eligible employer
• Pre-tax spending accounts
• Real opportunities for professional growth

We're proud to be an equal-opportunity employer that builds a team from every kind of background, perspective, and experience — because that's what makes our classrooms (and our staff room) better.

The Role -

Bilingual Lead Teacher

You're the heartbeat of the classroom . You'll design engaging days using our P.L.A.N. curriculum — woven with English-Spanish programming — build real relationships with your students, and set the tone for a safe, joyful, well-run room where kids grow up bilingual from day one.

What you'll do:

• Plan and lead daily activities using our P.L.A.N. curriculum, incorporating English-Spanish instruction
• Build strong, trusting bonds with students and their families
• Own classroom management — creating a consistent, positive environment for kids and staff alike
• Support each child's physical, social-emotional, and developmental growth
• Communicate clearly and warmly with families, colleagues, and your community — in English and Spanish

You'll bring:

• Fluency in English and Spanish
• 3–5 years of relevant classroom experience
• A bachelor's degree is required (preferably in the field of education). You may also need an MSDE 90hr Preschool Certificate or CDA Certification with Preschool Endorsement (minimum)
• Solid grasp of child development principles and instructional strategies
• Working knowledge of MSDE regulations
• A warm, friendly, unflappable demeanor is a must
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Reliability you could set a clock to

Where You'll Work

Potomac Village/Potomac — In the heart of Potomac, this multi-level campus has so many hidden treasures: outdoor classroom, art studio, enrichment center, and more.

Good to Know

Per Maryland State Department of Education Office of Child Care regulations, all applicants must pass a state and federal background check as a condition of employment. Applicants for our federal center campuses must also receive GSA security clearance through a government background screening.

Ready to grow with us — in two languages? We'd love to meet you.
