Summary
Why Join Our Teaching Team?
Reignite Your Passion
Step out of the four walls and into a learning environment where curiosity leads, hands are dirty, and joy is a daily companion.
Nature as the Classroom
From forest trails to garden beds, our curriculum is rooted in nature-based experiences — where math, science, literacy, and social-emotional growth happen in real time and in real life.
Small Class Sizes = Big Impact
With a low student-teacher ratio, you’ll build meaningful relationships and tailor learning to each child’s unique path.
A Team That Feels Like Family
Collaborate with thoughtful, mission-driven educators who support and inspire one another.
Professional Growth That Matters
We invest in your development — from workshops on place-based education to peer-led learning, you’ll grow alongside your students.
Your Role: Teacher, Mentor, Explorer
- Design and lead integrated K-2 learning experiences — especially in math, science, and inquiry — that are hands-on, student-driven, and rooted in the outdoors.
- Create a warm, inclusive learning community where every child feels seen, supported, and empowered.
- Model environmental stewardship and foster a love of nature that will stay with students for life.
- Engage with families and the local community, building strong partnerships that enrich learning.
Who You Are:
- A licensed teacher (or eligible for licensure) with experience teaching young children.
- Someone who thrives outdoors — rain, shine, or snow — and sees nature as a dynamic co-teacher.
- A creative, flexible educator who’s excited by project-based learning and open-ended exploration.
- You’re ready to grow professionally in a collaborative, evolving environment — and contribute your voice to something bigger.
