Our school has a rare opportunity to become an Oakhurst Mustang. We have an opening for a Kindergarten/1st Grade Autism Spectrum Disorder Teacher, and we're looking for an exceptional educator to join our Mustang Team.

Our team is built on collaboration, strong relationships, and a shared commitment to making a difference and being our best every day by living The Mustang Way!

If you know an outstanding educator who would thrive in a supportive, values-driven school community, please share this post or tag them below. Your recommendation could help us find the perfect addition to our team!
