Description

Description Gilbert Christian High School is seeking an Entrepreneurship Teacher to help lead and grow our Entrepreneurship Program—a hands-on, student-centered learning environment where faith, leadership, and real-world business intersect. This role blends classroom teaching, student mentorship, and operational leadership. The Entrepreneurship Program Teacher works directly with students in our in-person Entrepreneurship Class, oversees student-run ventures, and participates in ongoing coaching and professional development focused on entrepreneurship and innovation. This is not a traditional teaching role. It is a formation-focused position designed for someone who believes students learn best by building, experimenting, failing forward, and leading real projects with real responsibility—all within a Christ-centered community. Gilbert Christian Schools provides small class sizes that foster individualized instruction and accelerated learning. Freedom from federal regulation to teach a biblical worldview.

Gilbert Christian Schools combines the benefits of a small community with a comprehensive offering of academics, fine arts, athletics, clubs, and spiritual training.
