Our vibrant and thriving Montessori school, serving children ages 2-12, is seeking a qualified, experienced Elementary lead teacher to join our growing school community. Candidates must have (MACTE accredited) Montessori teacher certification for Lower Elementary (6-9) to apply.
Our beautiful 5+ acre campus is situated in a growing coastal community, minutes from beautiful beaches and Wilmington, NC. Nestled in a wooded neighborhood, our Elementary students care for chickens and goats, plant and harvest in our gardens and experience the joy of feeling connected with nature. As Dr. Montessori observed, children reveal their strength when in contact with nature.
The spirit of Monterssori is clearly evident in our school culture, where respect, community, and love of learning form our core values. Our learning environments are created with intention, consistent with Montessori pedagogy. If you are an enthusiastic and skilled Montessorian, committed to each child flourishing, and value collaboration and being part of a dynamic team, we invite you to apply.
