Position Summary

St. John Paul II Classical Catholic School is seeking a dedicated and experienced Lead Primary Montessori Teacher to guide a mixed-age classroom of children ages 3–5, beginning Summer 2026. This position is ideal for a Catholic, Montessori-trained educator who brings faith, warmth, patience, creativity, and a deep understanding of the developmental needs of young children.

Foster strong, trusting relationships with students that promote empathy, resilience, self-regulation, and joy in learning through respectful, deliberate adult-child interactions (calm, soft voices, explanations for processes rather than abrupt commands, adults at child’s level with eye contact when speaking with individual children).

Partner with the Montessori team to support smooth classroom flow, lesson delivery, and shared responsibilities.

Communicate effectively with parents through regular updates, formal conferences, and informal conversations to build a strong home-school connection.

Participate in staff meetings, school-wide events, and ongoing professional development.

Be comfortable using technology for communication.
