Pecan Street Christian School is a ministry of Pflugerville First United Methodist Church and is seeking Lead Twos Teacher for Weekday Ministry.

We are a Christian school whose goal is to provide children a safe, nurturing, play-based educational environment that is developmentally appropriate and instills a love of learning. We desire to build positive first impressions toward God, Jesus, the Bible, and church. We utilize a Bible based curriculum that allows children to explore, create, learn, and understand through hands-on activities. Language development, early science and math concepts, and pre-reading skills are learned in an environment rich in discovery opportunities. Pecan Street Christian School is a place where laughter and play are cherished and where learning is fun.

We are growing and seeking a Christian lead teacher to teach our Young Twos/Toddlers or 2 1/2-3 year olds in the upcoming 2022-23 school year and beyond.
