Teachers

This academic year, Bible in the Schools has committed to fully fund 26 Bible History teachers, which includes the Hamilton County Schools' Bible History District Content Lead. These 26 educators (over one-third of whom hold an advanced degree in a Bible-related discipline) are strongly credentialed and collectively hold 58 degrees. Generous community partners made it possible to begin new Bible History Programs at East Hamilton Middle School and Tyner Middle Academy in August 2020. We are proud and thankful for each of these fine educators and we invite you to email any of them an encouraging note care of info@bibleintheschools.com. Gifts can be made in honor of a teacher here, and he or she will be informed of your kindness. Gift amounts are always kept confidential.

If you would like to be considered as a candidate for an open Bible History teaching position, please email your resume and transcript to the Hamilton County Schools Bible History Content Lead, Ms. Patricia Cone at: Cone_Patricia@hcde.org.
