The STEM Teacher will work with the teaching team to plan, teach, and oversee the stem curriculum from grades 9-12 within the framework of a Montessori Adolescent program.

The program provides a consistent, yet flexible, structure; high expectations for work and conduct; a system of accountability; opportunities for student-led learning; and a focus on problem-solving. The curriculum promotes independence, self-direction, metacognition, and critical thinking. At its core, the collective elements of the program are a means to build community, discover passion, deepen curiosity, and provide experiences for each adolescent to engage deeply and meaningfully in self-discovery.
