Montessori School of Lake Forest (MSLF) seeks a dedicated and experienced Upper Elementary Lead Guide to join our vibrant school community for the 2025–2026 academic year. This is a unique opportunity for a Montessori-trained educator to bring vision, confidence, and collaboration to a well-established program rooted in authentic Montessori principles.

​

Located on a breathtaking campus nestled in nature, MSLF serves children from parent-infant through adolescence in a community grounded in respect, curiosity, and the development of the whole child. The school offers a host of enrichments for students, which are developmentally aligned and used to enhance the Montessori experience of the children.

​

The Upper Elementary Lead Guide will join a team that values autonomy, collaboration, and a deep commitment to educational excellence. Reporting to the Head of School, the Lead Guide works in partnership with an assistant, enrichment specialists, and families to guide each child’s academic and personal growth in alignment with the Montessori method and the school’s mission to cultivate curiosity and a lifelong love of learning.
