Math Teaching Jobs in Vermont (NOW HIRING)

ABC Academy is seeking a passionate, nurturing, and collaborative Preschool Teacher to lead a classroom of curious young learners. The Preschool Teacher creates a safe, engaging, and developmentally appropriate environment where children thrive through play, exploration, creativity, and meaningful relationships.

Our ideal candidate understands that preschool is about much more than preparing children for kindergarten—it’s about building confidence, independence, curiosity, resilience, social emotional skills, and a lifelong love of learning.

At ABC Academy, we believe childhood is a time for wonder, joy, and discovery. We are a vibrant, licensed learning community proudly serving families in Milton and St. Albans, Vermont. Our nurturing, play-based environment empowers children—from 6 weeks through 8th grade across our campuses—to learn through hands-on exploration, curiosity, and meaningful connections with their peers, educators, families, and the natural world.

Whether we’re splashing in puddles, creating masterpieces with paint and clay, reading stories under a tree, or helping children solve problems together, every day at ABC Academy is filled with purpose, joy, and growth. If you believe children should be seen, supported, challenged, and celebrated, we’d love to welcome you to the ABC family.
