High School Mathematics Teacher 2024-2025

Chesterfield County Public Schools (CCPS) seeks dynamic graduates who want to share their knowledge and love of mathematics with high school youth.

While we like applicants who have graduated from teacher preparation programs, applicants do not need to be education majors! If you majored in Mathematics, you may be eligible for a provisional (3-year temporary) license. Another pathway to a provisional license is passing the Praxis assessment in Mathematics, #5164.

CCPS is an award-winning school district in Central Virginia, with 7 National Blue Ribbon Schools, 7 National Title I Distinguished Schools, and 17 Virginia Index of Performance Awards. We're looking for great talent that want to be part of our commitment to great schools!
