Job Overview
Seasons Preschool, a Denton Best- top 3-early childhood education provider, is seeking a passionate and dedicated ECE/Lead Teacher to provide ”best-in-class,” developmentally appropriate care for children of all ages from Infancy through 4 years, in a fun and family-oriented, Christian environment.

You will have an opportunity, through your faithfulness to our core values of Integrity, Spirit of Excellence, Communication & Collaboration, and Passion & Professionalism, to showcase your talents and gifts in order to make a meaningful impact on little lives.
Once you walk through our door, you will feel the “Seasons difference.“ We love and appreciate our employees and invest in our employees' career development through paid training and professional development.
As a reward for your hard work, you will receive generous time off throughout the year, discounted childcare, and personal recognition. Our employees love working at Seasons- just ask them!
