General Faculty
The Webb School, an independent day and boarding school for grades 6–12 in Bell Buckle, Tennessee, seeks exceptional educators who are passionate about teaching, learning, and student development across all disciplines.
We are looking for thoughtful, creative, and inspiring teachers who view teaching as both an intellectual craft and a relational practice. At Webb, educators mentor students on their learning journey by designing experiences that connect content to purpose—helping students make meaning, ask compelling questions, reflect on their thinking, and apply their learning in authentic and transferable ways.
Teaching & Learning at Webb
As a Webb educator, you will:
- Design engaging, inquiry-driven learning experiences that move beyond content acquisition to deeper understanding and application.
- Foster students’ abilities to think critically, collaborate effectively, and communicate clearly across disciplines.
- Support students in becoming curious, reflective, and self-directed learners who take ownership of their growth.
- Create a classroom culture that is inclusive, supportive, and intellectually vibrant, one that honors diverse perspectives and learning styles.
- Collaborate with colleagues across departments to strengthen curriculum, assessment, and instructional practice school-wide.
We value educators who believe that every content area is a powerful teaching opportunity—one that develops not only disciplinary knowledge, but also habits of mind such as ethical reasoning, creativity, resilience, and empathy.
Student Life & Community Engagement

- Coaching or supporting athletic programs
- Participating in residential life through dorm affiliation or programming
