Teacher Assistant for 2024-2025

Hidaya Academy views education as encompassing the “whole child” -- i.e. the spiritual, social emotional, academic and physical needs of a student. It realizes that this is the only true way to prepare a child for success in this life, and the next. We aim to be a professional, sustainable Islamic school, infused with research driven teachings that will weave into developing students’ mindsets on how Islam shapes their identity and the world in which we live.

Hidaya Academy is seeking qualified elementary assistant teachers who are exemplary leaders, self-starters who are interested in developing and implementing effective curriculums. This is a great opportunity for individuals looking to grow their careers in an environment that values increasing students' skills and knowledge, solidifying their Muslim character, and inspiring confidence-based principles that allow them to serve and thrive, in our communities and our world. If these values resonate with you, we invite you to join our team!
