Information about Employment in DAS
Summary
Dhahran Ahliyya Schools (DAS) is
searching for qualified, enthusiastic faculty members who
will participate in the school's drive for continuous
improvement.
DAS is a not-for-profit, preK –12
school near the coast of the Arabian-Persian Gulf in Saudi
Arabia. Founded in 1977 as an Arabic school, it has now
achieved US accreditation (NCA) so it can move gradually
toward becoming a dual-language school (Arabic and English).
With more than 1760 students in a modern girls' school and
boys' school side by side, DAS is now able to offer both a
Saudi diploma and an American diploma.
The school's welcoming professional
learning community aims to develop compassionate 21rst
century citizens and to contribute to the development of
education in the Arab world. Absolutely committed to
continuous progress in student learning, the DAS strategy
for achieving it is to involve all teachers in an ongoing
program of individual and collaborative professional
development. PD courses are based on current educational
research in the US that has been translated and made
available in both languages. Individual teacher's progress
is supported, evaluated and rewarded with movement up the
salary scale when student learning is enhanced through the
use of improved strategies applied consistently and
appropriately in the classroom.
The school currently requires qualified
English-speaking teachers with at least two years of
teaching experience to teach physics, chemistry, math,
general science, social studies, and computer science. It
also needs elementary level teachers for English language.
In addition, it needs a highly qualified woman who is fluent
in both Arabic and English to serve as an educational
supervisor for math and science at the secondary level.
Starting salaries for teachers hired
from English-speaking countries for two year contracts are
competitive, tax free, and paid in addition to fully
furnished housing, medical insurance, annual re-patriation
tickets and 50% discount for up to three children at DAS.
CVs should be emailed to the address below as quickly as
possible so interviews can be organized in February in
Detroit, Boston or Miami.
