Westport Middle School is one of the most unique schools in all of Jefferson County!  In the last several years, Westport has grown to become one of the largest JCPS middle schools, which has brought on the need to recruit and retain some of the best, brightest, and most dedicated teachers in all of JCPS.  Westport is always looking for great teachers to join our staff of professional and passionate teachers.  Westport is a school on the rise and with vibrant programs such as our Montessori magnet, our award-winning robotics program, and our electric orchestra program.  It is no wonder that students and teachers from all over Jefferson County want to be at Westport!  

Westport is regularly looking for teachers who are certified in Math, Science, English/Language Arts, Social Studies, various Related Arts pathways, and Special Education to support our students as we grow.  If you are passionate about working in a collaborative environment that values teacher input, that will challenge you to grow and develop as a teacher and that provides support and resources no matter your experience level, then you would be a great fit for Westport and potentially a future Warhawk!

If you already teach in JCPS and are ready for a change, please select Westport as a potential transfer destination.  If you are a teacher from outside JCPS, or a recent college graduate with a certificate of eligibility from the Kentucky Education Professional Standards Board, visit the JCPS’s human resources website and current JCPS JobList.
