Elementary Teacher

We educate and disciple students toward their potential in Christ, thus enabling families to serve across the African continent.

RVA is an exceptional place, with a rich Christian heritage and dynamic ministry.  RVA staff members have the privilege of supporting current mission work in some of the most inaccessible and difficult regions in Africa, as well as investing in the next generation of missionaries. We also have the honor of teaching and serving a small number of Kenyan nationals and non-mission students. As a branch of Africa Inland Mission, we exist to see Christ-centered churches among all of Africa’s peoples

At RVA, we seek to educate and nurture our youngest students with excellence and purpose. Our elementary school, Titchie Swot (Little Learner), serves about 120 students, kindergarten through sixth grade. School is in session from August to July each year. We have three terms, each approximately 12 weeks in length, followed by a one-month holiday break.

Titchie Swot utilizes a North American regimen with a full complement of Bible, art, physical education, and music curricula, including sixth grade band and daily access to a computer lab and library. Students attend chapel on Wednesdays and Fridays, and participate in sports, dramatic and musical performances, cultural field trips, and service to the greater Kijabe community.
