Located in the scenic Berkshire-Taconic landscape in the quiet northwest corner of Connecticut, The Hotchkiss School is a community in which faculty and staff members build careers and grow as professionals. We seek to identify, recruit, and develop faculty and staff members who bring a diversity of experiences, perspectives, talents, and backgrounds. Collectively, we are dedicated to supporting the intellectual, social, and emotional growth of 600 students who come from around the country and the world.
We know that students perform better and achieve more when they have access to teachers, advisors, and school leaders who look like they do. We also know that all students perform better when learning from diverse faculty, among diverse peers. Hotchkiss is committed to developing innovative hiring strategies in order to attract and retain the most capable faculty and staff, including the best teachers of color.
