Our Primary community is entering a joyful new chapter. Our current Primary Guide — a dynamic, deeply passionate Montessori educator — is transitioning to Lower Elementary next year to continue guiding the same cohort of children she has nurtured since early childhood. As she moves forward with them, we are seeking a Primary Director who will bring their own warmth, steadiness, and vision to the heart of our early childhood program.
This is a rare opportunity to step into a well‑established, beautifully prepared environment with a strong culture of independence, kindness, and curiosity.
We Are Hoping to Welcome
We’re looking for someone who is not only Montessori‑credentialed, but who brings a grounded, human presence to the classroom — someone who communicates with clarity and warmth, collaborates with ease, and sees the beauty in the everyday work of the child.
You might be the right fit if you:
- Hold a Montessori Primary credential (AMS/AMI/MACTE)
- Have experience guiding young children (Primary or early childhood experience both welcome)
- Communicate with honesty, empathy, and professionalism
- Observe deeply and respond thoughtfully
- Value partnership with families and colleagues
- Bring steadiness, joy, and curiosity to your work
As Primary Director, you will:
- Lead a Primary classroom with intention, consistency, and respect
- Maintain a warm, orderly, developmentally aligned environment
- Support children as they build independence, concentration, and confidence
- Partner with families through clear, compassionate communication
- Collaborate with assistants and school leadership to support a thriving community
- Contribute to the ongoing growth of a program with deep roots and a strong identity
