Kingsley is a coeducational Montessori independent school serving children from Toddler through sixth grade. It is organized into two divisions: Early Childhood (Toddler - 2- year-olds and Preschool & Kindergarten - 3 to 6-year-olds) and Elementary (Lower Elementary - 1st through 3rd grade and Upper Elementary - 4th through 6th grade). Kingsley graduates are confident learners, resilient explorers, and empathetic citizens, who are prepared for academic and personal success at their next schools and beyond.
In 1938, Kingsley began as a small school serving students whose needs could not be met by the city public schools. Celebrating its 85th anniversary this year, the school now serves over 300 students and is firmly situated in the strongest position in its history. In February 2024, after a tremendously successful fundraising campaign, Kingsley purchased 26 Exeter Street, securing its second permanent campus in Back Bay. In 2023, Kingsley launched its Strategic Plan, outlining clear strategic priorities and vision for the School, and was also re-accredited by AISNE in 2023 for a ten-year term.
We seek a dynamic, experienced, culturally-aware leader for a progressive Montessori program that honors educational best practices. As Director, the successful candidate will have responsibility for academic oversight of the Early Childhood program (comprised of ten classrooms in Toddler through Kindergarten); leading and supporting a talented, dedicated Early Childhood staff (over 90% teacher retention for 2024-25); creating strong partnerships between school and families (over 90% student/family retention); and advancing the mission and strategic initiatives of the School.
