PreK Teacher - Year Round

Mounds Park Academy is a PreK-12 independent school in Saint Paul, MN that serves approximately 575 students from throughout the Twin Cities area. Since 1982, Mounds Park Academy has engaged students in a rigorous college preparatory experience that is demanding, but not draining, and goes far beyond memorization. Students are challenged to apply their understanding to stir the human spirit, stand for justice, and shake the world. This is what we call rigor with purpose, and it grounds our students in the radical idea that their identity in the world is not measured by a test score, but rather by the depth and decency of their impact on the world.
MPA is committed to embracing diversity, seeking equity, and continually striving to be inclusive. As a community, MPA is focused on fostering a safe and inclusive space, aspiring to be cognizant of gender identity and equality, religious understanding, socio-economic diversity, and racial justice.
