Foster caring, committed, and supportive relationships with students and families

Design, prepare, and deliver learning experiences that facilitate authentic engagement and meet students where they are on their educational path

Participate in community building events, both in and out of school hours
Promote and support the mission, vision and values of the school.

Bachelor of Education
Additional Preferences (not required):
Montessori Teaching Diploma, or interest in pursuing Montessori training
Interest or experience in discovery-based philosophies (e.g., Reggio, play-based)
1-2 years teaching experience
Valid First Aid
Salary and Benefits:

Extended health and dental plan
RRSP match program
Regular professional development
Small class sizes (16:1) students to teacher
Willing to negotiate discounted or complimentary tuition for children of our education team.
Unlike for-profit private schools, as an independent non-profit school, we operate on a cost-recovery basis. We want to be able to provide an accessible independent school education for a diverse range of the community population. While we are unable to be competitive with private and public-school salaries, we make up for it with schedule flexibility, professional development opportunities, benefits, paid sick/personal days, and an incredibly supportive, warm and welcoming school and work environment.
