Guided by the Dalton Plan, our faculty meets each student’s evolving needs, interests, and abilities. Dalton challenges each student to develop intellectual independence, creativity, curiosity, and a sense of responsibility toward others both within the School and in the broader community. We are seeking an engaging, creative, and technically skilled Computer Science Instructor to teach a project‑based coding course for 9th‑grade students beginning March 2026 and ending June 2026.

In the first semester, students build personal portfolio websites using HTML and CSS, which they update regularly via GitHub. In the second semester, the focus shifts to JavaScript, where students build interactive experiences like digital greeting cards, mini‑games, randomizers, and playful “code sketches”.

Qualifications Demonstrated proficiency with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and git version control. Experience teaching or mentoring young people in coding or creative tech.
