Join Middle Georgia's Leading Christ-Centered, College Preparatory School
Our mission is a calling, not just a career. At First Presbyterian Day School (FPD), teaching is a ministry. We exist to educate and equip students to change the world for God's glory.
As a teacher here, you are a vital partner in our mission, cultivating an environment that nurtures the whole child—spiritually, intellectually, physically, socially, and emotionally
Core Committments
Glorify God: We believe the chief end of man is to glorify God and, therefore, we seek to bring glory to Him in everything we do, whether in thought, deed, or action.
Biblical Worldview: God's truth is the foundation and integrating point for all curriculum and instruction.
Advancing God’s Kingdom: As Christians we are called to be redemptive agents in the world, acting as stewards of creation and having an impact on our culture that glorifies God and advances His kingdom. We will seek to strengthen believers and the church, profess the Gospel of Jesus Christ, relieve those in need, and stand against ideas and initiatives of the ungodly—in all, bringing glory to God and acknowledging with gratitude that He accomplishes the work.
Integrity: We desire to exhibit complete honesty and integrity in our interactions with parents, students, faculty, staff, vendors, and all others whom God may put in our path. We also seek soundness in our financial condition, business practices, and policies. We understand that honesty and transparency does not mean disclosing some things that must necessarily be treated with confidentiality. Our desire is to be beyond reproach in everything we do and say.
Excellence: We strive for excellence in all programs, ensuring students are prepared to succeed in any college or university they choose.
Serve Families: We view our role as supporting parents in "training up a child in the nurture and admonition of the Lord."
Passionate Colleagues: Work alongside faculty who are deeply committed to the school’s mission and each student's success.
Supportive Leadership: Experience supportive management and a culture where communication is clear and constructive feedback is consistent.
Low Ratios: Benefit from a low student-to-teacher ratio (approximately 10:1), allowing you to build meaningful, personal relationships with every student.
Intentionality: We honor the innocence and joy of childhood, providing a safe, Christ-centered space where every student feels seen, valued, and loved.
