Location: Scituate, Massachusetts
Type: Full Time
Required Education:
Inly School is an independent PreK–8 Montessori-plus School located in Scituate, MA, 25 miles south of Boston. It has a student population of approximately 340 students, 76 employees, and serves 20 towns on the South Shore.
At Inly School our dynamic Montessori+ practices inspire our inclusive community of learners to explore and shape ourselves and the world with joyful curiosity, courage and compassion. Our commitment to anti-racist and anti-bias teaching practices are the privilege and responsibility of every member of the Inly Community. Inly School actively seeks faculty, families and leadership who embrace and practice skills that reflect our Montessori core values of collaboration, respect, compassion and empathy.
Inly School seeks an experienced Middle School Humanities teacher to team-teach in a multi-age environment (grades 7-8) beginning in August, 2023. Our Middle School Core Teachers develop and teach a core subject to middle school students at Inly and work collaboratively with the middle school team to develop and implement comprehensive and developmentally appropriate middle school programming. The Humanities teacher is responsible for bringing to life a robust history, literature, and writing study as part of a larger thematically organized Humanities curriculum. The Middle School Humanities teacher challenges students to grapple with complexity and look beyond simple answers by helping students foster important habits of mind that are the foundation for analytical thinking: a concern for evidence, examining multiple viewpoints and engaging in the ongoing search for patterns and connections.

- Invest in the whole child understanding that meeting the emotional needs of each student is a primary task of the Montessori educator through a variety of roles which include but are not limited to: leading an advisory group, facilitating field study experiences (including some overnight field studies) and overseeing a student-run business initiative
