Application for School Employment

What Makes a Great Teacher or Administrator? Faith. Commitment. Energy. Results.

Teaching or being a principal in a Catholic school is an opportunity to make a tremendous difference in your students’ lives. You not only help them excel academically (nearly 98% of Catholic high school graduates go on to college), but also personally through an environment that nurtures faith, values and a respect for truth and learning. These are lessons that will stay with your students for the rest of their lives.

The Archdiocese of Washington is home to 106 PreK, elementary, secondary and special schools in the District of Columbia, and Calvert, Charles, Montgomery, Prince George’s and St. Mary’s counties. Simply follow the instructions below if you are interested in applying to be an administrator, teacher or aide in one of the Catholic schools in the archdiocese. If you have questions, please contact Liz Whelan, Director of Professional Development at 301-853-4552.
