At Magnolia, teachers aim to inspire curiosity, possibilities, imagination, contemplation, and exploration in a setting where children are free to express their interests, their needs, and their passions.

A teacher's goal is to be co-constructing knowledge that guides and supports the work in progress that is each child's cognitive development. Substitute teachers will ensure student safety and follow site director's risk assessments for all experiences in the forest. We expect teachers to carry supplies in and out of the forest each day, carry a small child if needed, and navigate uneven terrain. Our school operates 100% outside through rainy and cold weather. Teachers must dress adequately to stay warm and dry, including waterproof footwear. We work to hire a diverse team of people who can support our culture of equity and inclusion. Previous experience in education or outdoor recreation is not required. We provide training and ongoing professional development, as well as opportunities for advancement.
