About the role
SENIOR HIGH MATH TEACHER
Type: Full-time
Start Date: late January 2026
Where Your Impact Multiplies
Imagine teaching math where students want to solve problems. Where your innovative lesson ideas are
celebrated, not constrained. Where you have the time and support to do what drew you to teaching in
the first place: inspiring young minds to see possibility in every equation.
That's the difference at West Island College.
Who We Are
West Island College is Calgary's leading independent school where academic excellence meets genuine
care for the whole person, students and staff alike. We're CAIS accredited, forward-thinking, and built
on a foundation of strong relationships and belonging. Our tagline, "Own Your Future," isn't just for
students, it's how we approach professional growth for every educator on our team.
Why This Role Matters for Your Career
This isn't just another math teaching position. It's your opportunity to:
- Shape curriculum with real autonomy: Your professional judgment is trusted. Fresh ap-
proaches are welcomed, not just tolerated.
- Work with engaged, motivated learners: Smaller class sizes and students who genuinely
want to be here change everything about how you can teach.
- Integrate your innovative ideas: Want to bring real-world applications, technology inte-
gration, or project-based learning into your classroom? We're here for it.
- Grow as an educational leader: Access CAIS networks, professional development, and
genuine pathways to leadership roles within our community.
- Actually enjoy teaching again: Remember why you became a teacher? Our culture
makes that feeling sustainable.
FACULTY ROLE
SENIOR HIGH MATH TEACHER
Type: Full-time
Start Date: late January 2026
What Your Days Look Like
You'll teach engaging, rigorous Senior High Math courses where critical thinking and problem-solving
come alive. But more importantly, you'll have the space to teach well-supported by modern technology,
well-equipped facilities, and a collaborative team that has your back.
Beyond the classroom, you'll be part of a close-knit community where your voice matters in shaping
how we approach education. This is a place where faculty are partners in decision-making, not just
implementers of someone else's vision.
The WIC Difference
- Independent school flexibility with none of the instability—we've been serving Calgary
families for decades
- Smaller classes that let you know every student as an individual
- A culture where diverse perspectives are genuinely valued, not just acknowledged
- Technology and resources that support your teaching, not complicate it
- Colleagues who collaborate because they want to, not because they must
- Students who are here by choice, ready to engage
Who Thrives Here
You don't need to check every box—we're looking for the right fit, not the perfect resume. You'll do well
at WIC if you:
- Bachelor of Education and hold (or are eligible for) Alberta Teacher Certification and
have experience teaching Senior High Math
- Put students at the center of your practice and create inclusive learning environments
- Bring curiosity, collaboration, and a growth mindset to your work
- Value relationships as much as results
- Want to contribute to school life beyond your classroom—whether that's through coach-
ing, clubs, committees, or simply being a present, engaged colleague
FACULTY ROLE
SENIOR HIGH MATH TEACHER
Type: Full-time

portunities

workers
Your Next Move
If you're reading this and thinking "this sounds like the kind of place I've been looking for," then let's
talk. We're building a team of educators who want to do meaningful work in an environment that makes
that possible.
This role starts in late January 2026, which gives us time to find the right person, not just a person. If
that's you, we'd love to hear from you.
