Description

Garden School is excited to announce the opening of a Kindergarten Co-Teaching position for the fall of 2026.

We are seeking a talented, nurturing, and collaborative teacher to join our Early Childhood team.

The Kindergarten class is nested within what we call the Vertical Classroom, a mixed age room where three- and four-year-olds occupy one side of the room, kindergarteners occupy another, and in the middle is a collaborative "Centers" area.

This role is ideal for an educator with training in Montessori methodology, Progressive education, or similar.

As the fifth adult in the room, this individual will serve as an integral member of the early childhood team, helping to design and facilitate purposeful center-based experiences that foster curiosity, agency, creativity, and foundational academic growth.

Essential responsibilities include designing and facilitating engaging center-based learning experiences that promote exploration, independence, and engagement, supporting literacy, numeracy, and social-emotional learning with students across the entire EC program.

The ideal candidate will work collaboratively with others to differentiate and meet the needs of diverse learners, observe students carefully, and use those observations to inform instruction.

Requirements

  • Birth-2 teaching certification
  • Training in Montessori methodology, Progressive education, or similar
  • Ability to work collaboratively with others
  • Excellent observation and instructional skills
  • Experience with center-based learning experiences
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills
