Assalam Alaikum,
The Cypress Sunday School Team is looking to add personnel – teachers and staff – for the 2014-15 academic year. The school meets every Sunday from 10:30 am to 2 pm with a lunch break. Each position (teaching, staff) requires candidates who have at least a bachelors degree. A strong commitment to student learning and team effort is important. Generally, these are “voluntary” without a compensation, but for some positions (where a specific expertise is necessary), a basic compensation may be considered.
If interested, please apply online using the form below or email us at [email protected]; once the search process is complete, we will contact all applicants.
Thank you for your interest.
Jazakumullah Khair.
