Who We Are
ExcellED Montessori Plus is a community of educators and thought leaders who are passionate about furthering the early childhood learning. We exist because we feel early childhood education requires disruption and adoption of new, innovative teaching methods that personalize instruction for each child’s 360-degree development.
We’re interested in hiring experienced, Montessori guides, as well as innovative and passionate preschool teachers who are ready to implement dynamic, instructional strategies that will truly meet the needs of each student.
If you are a gifted and passionate educator who is eager to transform the learning experiences for children, this could be a special opportunity for you. At ExcellED Schools, we are not only creating a new preschool, but we are also developing an innovative approach to early childhood education – the ExcellED way. The ExcellED way follows the heart of each individual child. It follows their curiosity, their thirst for discovery, and their quest for fun. So if you are caring, adventurous, and ready for some fun, apply today! We are currently accepting applications from talented educators from traditional and non-traditional programs.
