Golden Heart Christian School, located in Fairbanks, Alaska, is seeking a passionate, enthusiastic, and organized 5th thru 8th grade teacher who loves working with children and sharing their love for Christ. Depending on experience, this role may also include the rewarding responsibility of serving as the teaching principal and leader/vision-caster for this growing school.

Golden Heart is a well-established institution and a long-standing part of the Fairbanks community. The school is supported by two Adventist churches in the area. Golden Heart has been a one teacher school for a number of years and has recently experienced growth causing the wonderful need for a second teacher. The student body is primarily made up of children who are not of the Adventist faith but are seeking a Christ-centered education with traditional values.

Fairbanks, AK – the largest city in the interior of Alaska and the second-largest city in the state. Fairbanks boasts beautiful rivers and mountains, warm, long summer days, and some of the best winter views of the spectacular Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis).

As Described at Explore Fairbanks…

“At 65 degrees north latitude, the sky takes on a capricious life of its own—a canvas for the aurora borealis, the midnight sun and sunsets and sunrises that last forever. Here there are serious mountain ranges, pristine rivers and lakes, abundant wildlife and a certain poignant solitude that is found nowhere else on earth. Locals embrace the natural world and have created a vibrant river city in the far north. Where else can you travel to such a remote locale and still enjoy all the amenities of a charming downtown, a thriving arts community, rich Alaska Native culture, authentic Alaskan activities and attractions and endless opportunities for exploration? ”
