Careers
Inly staff are Montessori educators, working collaboratively to build a rich, inclusive and diverse culture. We ensure that students not only achieve high academic success but also excel in the skills necessary to navigate the world as thoughtful global citizens.
Teachers at Inly are nurturing. They foster each student’s natural curiosity and inclination to learn. Individuality is celebrated here at Inly, and our commitment to a broad education in the arts, athletics, makerspace and outdoor classroom ensures that each student finds their passion.
Finding Inly was the perfect match. It has been a joy to work in an environment where the teaching team can take time to collaborate extensively and discover the best ways to meet the needs of each individual student. I love that the approach at Inly is not a ‘one size fits all’ but tailored to meet the students where they are and take them higher and higher.
Pamela Nii-Aryee, Upper Elementary
After nearly 50 years of practice, we have observed that successful staff and faculty at Inly embrace the following ideas:
- Our work is a calling. We are implementing a very unique, specialized approach to education and have a deep dedication to doing “whatever it takes” for our children and families. All of this requires a special kind of commitment. Our Elementary lead teachers must have both a teaching degree and Montessori certification, or be willing to work toward acquiring both. Teachers and staff must also have a high level of cultural competence, and be committed to constant growth in this area.
- Our work requires being coachable, having an ongoing desire, and a sense of egolessness.
- Our work is not easy. Our teachers individualize curriculum for every student, within mixed age groupings. We are constantly aligning Montessori values and practices with national standards, while meeting the requirements of teaching in an academically rigorous independent school.
- Our work requires flexibility, independence and initiative. We are a creative school committed to continual growth. Things change fast, and we are constantly developing and refining programs, systems and structures.
- Our work requires a commitment to teaching families as well as children. Our child-centered approach isn’t intuitive to all families. In order to truly partner with them, we must be committed to working with all members in our Inly community.
- Our work is profoundly rewarding. Inly children love coming to school. They are joyful, engaged and fun to be around.
