Well, it’s finally happened! I got an unofficial job offer this last Friday from St. Peter’s Classical Academy in Ft Worth! They’ve only been around for 2 years and they already have 80 students coming in next year. They are also already in the black- an amazing thing for a private school less than 3 years old.
One of the reasons they are so well off financially is because they don’t pay any rent at St. Peter’s, the Antiochan Western Rite church where they are at. This is in large part thanks to Bishop Basil who commissioned this church to build a set of Sunday School buildings that could also house a school. The grounds are beautiful- the school is located in the middle of a forest, backs up to a gorgeous creek, and has a garden courtyard in the middle with a fountain (which you can see on their website). The church itself is also very beautiful, built from stone and rustic wood beams.
As of right now, this is still a job offer, seeing as they have not finalized a potential salary yet. But, if all goes as planned, I will be teaching HS English, Beginning Latin (they start their Kindergartners in Latin and Greek!) and Music Appreciation. Oh, and also possibly being the first ever coach of their Girls Basketball Team!!
