Inly School seeks a Nature Studies Educator beginning in August, 2026. The Nature Studies Educator partners with classroom teachers to extend the Montessori science and cultural curriculum through experiential, nature-based learning opportunities for Toddler through Lower Elementary students. This role helps students develop curiosity, observation skills, environmental stewardship, and a deeper connection to the natural world through hands-on experiences across Inly’s campus and outdoor learning spaces.
Utilizing gardens, greenhouse spaces, trails, natural play areas, and outdoor classrooms as extensions of the learning environment, the Nature Studies Educator supports the application and exploration of concepts introduced within the classroom curriculum. This position is distinct from classroom science instruction and instead focuses on experiential learning, environmental connection, and outdoor exploration.
The ideal candidate is collaborative, flexible, organized, and passionate about child-centered education. They are excited to work across age levels and help cultivate a culture of curiosity, stewardship, inquiry, and joyful exploration.
