Work With The Wild School

The Wild School is an outdoor, nature-based education program serving children across multiple locations. Our programs include Wild Preschool, Forest Kindergarten, seasonal camps, and caregiver-child classes.

​

All roles at The Wild School are:

• Hourly and location-based

• Schedule-specific and consistent

• Paid for classroom time, preparation, training, and staff meetings

• Designed for people who want meaningful, hands-on work

​

Working at The Wild School is a good fit for people who:

• Enjoy working outdoors with children in all seasons

• Value predictable schedules and clear role boundaries

• Want paid daily preparation time built into their workday

​

Our team includes parents, early-career educators, education students, and experienced teachers who value clarity, structure, and purpose in their work.

​
