Job Description

The Waldorf School of Baltimore seeks a warm, skilled, and collaborative  Vocal/Genera l Music Teacher to lead a vibrant, developmentally grounded music program for grades 1–8. Music is a central pillar of Waldorf education, and this role offers the opportunity to awaken students’ enthusiasm for music while guiding them to understand, appreciate, and perform within a rich, holistic curriculum. Through singing, movement, rhythm, ear training, and classroom instrument instruction, you will nurture each child’s musical capacities in an engaging and age-appropriate way.

This position reports to the Academic Director and offers the opportunity to contribute meaningfully to a dedicated and mission-driven faculty.
