Sunday Religious School Teachers

The responsibilities listed below offer a helpful overview of the role, though they don’t cover everything. As part of our collaborative and caring team, you might be asked to take on additional tasks or adjust responsibilities to best support our students, school, and community.
Create and lead thoughtful, engaging lesson plans that reflect our curriculum and Jewish educational values.
Teach students about Jewish history, traditions, values, religious practices, and the Hebrew language in a meaningful and age-appropriate way (exact content is dependent on position). Sunday teachers are not required to know Hebrew.
Build a welcoming, inclusive classroom where students feel connected, encouraged, and excited to participate.
Partner with other BFRS teachers, staff, and families to create a strong support system for each student’s learning journey.
Communicate in a timely manner with Education Team members as well as parents and co-teachers.
Join in school events, religious celebrations, and community activities to help bring Jewish learning to life.
Attend professional development trainings and grade-level meetings. Stay curious and connected by exploring new ideas and bringing a growth mindset.

Teachers are paid hourly with separate hours allotted for prep-time. Sunday teachers typically work 3.5 hours onsite Sunday morning and have up to 2 hrs of prep-time/week. This means you can earn approximately between $160-$210/session if you use your prep time.
We pay your hourly rate for all meetings and all professional development.
