Employment

We work hard and have a lot of fun doing it.

New Hope Christian Academy seeks out gifted individuals who have a passion for God and His Presence, for teaching, for children, and serving their community.

NHCA does not require state certification for teachers. We have found that our form of education works best when we seek those who share our values and have a natural teaching ability. We are seeking teachers who value the Presence of God, who are interested in growing in their personal walk with God while leading students to grow as well.   Who desire to be apart of our community of learners that are chasing after Jesus. Our teachers must be committed, orthodox protestant Christians with a living faith in Jesus Christ.

    • Take personal responsibility to keep your soul healthy and to manage change well.
    • Remain flexible, teachable, optimistic and ready to jump in wherever and whenever needed.
    • Live at peace with everyone and protect and fight for the unity of our team.
