Good Shepherd Episcopal is a member of the Independent Schools Association of the Southwest Group Benefits Trust for medical, dental, and vision insurance as well as life insurance and long-term disability coverage. The school subsidizes medical premiums for both medical plans and dental plans for employee coverage and offers competitive premiums for dependent coverage. In addition to general coverage, we offer HSA and FSA plans and the school contributes semi-annually to employee HSA accounts to help offset medical expenses.

Good Shepherd offers a 403(b) retirement plan which is fully vested at the beginning of employment. The school will contribute five percent and match up to an additional four percent after the completion of one year of full-time employment.

Professional learning is part of our school’s growth culture. At Good Shepherd, employees are encouraged to seek out opportunities for professional learning based on best practices and school initiatives, and join professional organizations relative to their job assignment.

We also encourage employees to continue their educational coursework and offer up to 50% tuition reimbursement for coursework relative to the employee’s job assignment, subject to approval.

Working at Good Shepherd gives you the freedom to maintain a healthy work-life balance. Employees receive paid days off to take on their own and are also able to enjoy most of the same holidays as the students.

Employees who work a minimum of 20 hours per week are eligible for tuition remission for children admitted to the school in a full-day program, up to a maximum of 50% for full-time employees. All employees are also encouraged to apply for tuition assistance should additional assistance be needed. Extended care for Good Shepherd students is also available to employees at no additional cost.

During the academic year, employees can enjoy complimentary lunch each day from the school cafeteria, along with catered lunches throughout the year provided by our Parents’ Organization.
