Who We Are:
St. Robert Bellarmine is a Pre-K to Eighth Catholic elementary school in the Jefferson Park neighborhood, on the northside of Chicago. We have a well-maintained, secure school campus, just minutes from both the Blue Line and the Kennedy Expressway. This makes our school an ideal location for teaching candidates who live in the city or the suburbs.
We have a wonderful school community filled with fantastic students, supportive school parents, and an amazing, dedicated, and caring, school staff. At SRB, we believe that every child can succeed and that as educators, our primary goal is to bring out the very best in each of them. So, if you are a kind, empathetic, and friendly person who communicates well and loves working with children, our school may just be the right place for you!
Job Description:
We are currently seeking a teacher to join our team. Applicants must have a passion for education and must love working with children. They should be energetic, reliable, and professional while being able to work in a collaborative and caring environment. They must also show initiative, have well-developed interpersonal skills, and be interested in learning to improve and grow as a teacher.
Working Conditions:
- A dedicated classroom that is not shared with any other teachers.
- A classroom equipped with an interactive smart board.
- A dedicated set of the latest generation iPads in every classroom. (SRB is a 1-to-1 school!)

- All staff members, also have the option of supplementing their income by facilitating school activities such as clubs, sports, and after-school tutoring.
Qualifications:
A bachelor’s degree from a four-year university is a prerequisite for this position. However, a valid educator license, although preferred, may not be required based on the candidate's educational credentials and prior work history in elementary education.
Finally, although we are a Catholic school, being Catholic is not prerequisite for a teaching position at our school. However, whoever is hired must be respectful of our faith and all people, regardless of religion, race, ethnicity, gender, or economic status. We believe that everyone has a right to human dignity and kindness.
