How to Get Involved
“Now, what really makes a teacher is love for the human child; for it is love that transforms the social duty of the educator into the higher consciousness of a mission.” - Maria Montessori
Apply to make a difference and shape the next generation! Being a teacher is more than taking care of children, but also learning more about yourself to impact others.
