High School Teacher

We are looking for strong followers of Jesus Christ who want to make a difference in the lives of struggling teens.

Located in the Dominican Republic, Caribbean Mountain Academy exists to bring lasting hope to families in crisis.  CMA allows struggling youth to step away for a time in order to find fresh perspective. They are able to potentially catch up on missed school credits.  Also, the youth experience a new culture, serve in the surrounding impoverished communities, and enjoy beautiful waterfalls, beaches, and mountains.  CMA staff support them throughout these new experiences, modeling the love of Christ and showering the students in love and prayer.
