Early Childhood Guides (two positions) in Salem, VA, US

Salem Montessori is a well-established Montessori community serving children from early childhood through middle school. The school has a beautiful campus, dedicated leadership, supportive families, and a faculty committed to authentic Montessori practice.

What makes this opportunity especially attractive is the combination of professional satisfaction and quality of life.

Located in Virginia’s stunning Blue Ridge Mountains near Roanoke, Salem offers a lifestyle that many Montessori educators seek but rarely find.

Housing costs remain far below those in most major metropolitan areas. Traffic is minimal. Outdoor recreation is extraordinary. The region offers excellent healthcare, cultural opportunities, higher education, and easy access to the rest of the Mid-Atlantic.

For someone seeking a long-term professional home, this is a community worth serious consideration.

We are seeking Montessori-trained Early Childhood Guides who are passionate about their work, committed to Montessori principles, and interested in joining a thriving school community.

Candidates currently completing Montessori certification programs may also be considered.

If you or someone you know may be interested, I would appreciate hearing from you directly.

Some of the very best Montessori educators I have ever met were introduced through personal recommendations from colleagues and friends.

Please feel free to share this announcement widely throughout the Montessori community.
