Bilingual Preschool Teachers in Potomac, Maryland at Georgetown Hill Early School

¡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.

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.

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.

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.
