FOR UNSOLICITED APPLICATIONS

We prefer hiring native English speakers so unless your English is at that level, we will not consider your application.

Also, for teacher positions, we only hire Montessori trained teachers with either an AMI or AMS degree. We also require at least 2 years of experience as a Montessori teacher in a full 3-6 (Casa) Montessori environment. If you do not have these credentials, your application will not be considered for a teacher position.
