Pacific Crest School in Seattle, WA, is currently seeking AMI trained Elementary guides to join our experienced Elementary team as we refine our Spanish, Outings and Elementary Aftercare programs, and prepare to add another classroom.

We’re seeking:

• An AMI trained, native Spanish speaker to bring Montessori curriculum, in Spanish, to children in all of our Elementary classrooms.
• An AMI trained guide to align our robust Outings & Aftercare programs with Montessori principles, promoting social development and independence outside of the classroom.

Requirements:

• AMI Elementary diploma, or current enrollment in such a training program
• Strong aptitude for working in collaboration with fellow teachers.
• Commitment to engaging students according to AMI principles of development to create a joyful, engaging learning environment that ignites a love for nature & work, and nurtures wonder, gratitude, dignity, self-discipline and independence.
• Ability and passion to nurture every child’s potential in an increasingly racially and culturally diverse community.

PCS was founded in 1985 and is led by an AMI trained and experienced Head of School, leadership and teachers. With 200+ students, we have four Primary classes, two Lower Elementary, one Upper Elementary, a Middle School and a 19-acre farm (on nearby Vashon Island)!

We’re located in a residential block between the dynamic and creative Ballard and Fremont neighborhoods, and our farm offers organic gardens, sheep, chickens, fruit & nut orchards, ponds, a creek, woodlands, a meadow, platform tents, community events, and more.
