Our School Community
The King David community is defined by its safe, supportive environment and a commitment to holistic student development — intellectual, moral, social and physical.
We are a highly mission-driven school focused on academic excellence, Jewish values and developing caring leaders and citizens. This creates a strong sense of belonging, where staff know students well and work together to support one another.
As we say, KDHS is Where You Belong.
Living in Vancouver
KDHS is located in a central, urban neighbourhood on Vancouver’s West Side, near 41st Avenue and Oak Street. It is on the 41/R4 bus route and within walking distance of the SkyTrain. We are also directly across from the Jewish Community Centre, where employees receive a discount that supports family and community life.
The location offers easy access to Queen Elizabeth Park, Oakridge shopping and Vancouver’s world-class amenities — mountains, beaches and a vibrant arts and culture scene.
Salary and Benefits
SALARY AND benefits
We pay teachers $5,000 over Vancouver School Board posted teaching salaries, and this differential will increase in the future. Other positions are offered competitive salaries with annual pay reviews and increases.
We offer a robust benefit program that includes an RRSP matching program (currently at 9%), extended health family benefits fully paid by the employer, partial gym membership and an employee discretionary Health Spending Account Allowance. We also offer personal flex days, employee and family sick days and a paid referral program.
PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
We are committed to investing in staff growth. Professional development is supported through opportunities both inside and outside the school, including conferences, courses and workshops.
