Butler Montessori is happy to announce an open position for an AMI Trained Elementary Montessori Resource Guide, starting August 2024. We would consider an earlier start date if the ideal candidate would like to begin their journey with us before the 2024-2025 school year.

We embrace diversity and face challenges with creativity and optimism. As a community, we proudly carry forward our 50+ year history of Montessori-prepared environments through High School, providing a full AMI Montessori foundation, with strong enrollment and finances.

The successful candidate will collaborate with teachers and staff to facilitate a cohesive environment where children learn and develop at their own pace.  This candidate will have an Elementary AMI Diploma and possess strong communication and technology skills, coupled with a warm and cooperative character.
