</div></div><div></div><div>All of our teachers hold dual credentials: a California teaching credential (with ELL authorization) and a Montessori credential. For the California teaching credential, we are looking for applicants who have their California Multiple Subject credential or who will be intern-eligible by July 1.</div>
<div></div><div>Please note that California now has additional requirements for TK teachers. A TK teacher must have either:</div>
<ul><li>24 units of early childhood education</li></ul>
<ul><li>1 year of experience being a preschool or TK teacher</li></ul>
<ul><li>Early Childhood permit from the CTC (or an Early Childhood Montessori credential)</li></ul>
<div></div><div>While we prioritize applicants who are already Montessori trained, we realize that most applicants will need Montessori training after they are hired.</div>
<div></div><div><b>HOW DO I GET MONTESSORI TRAINED?</b></div>
<div>Montessori training is age based, with different training for ages 3-6, 6-9, 9-12, and 12-18. These trainings take between 1-2 years to complete, often taken concurrently while working as a teacher in a classroom. California Montessori Project (CMP) will pay the tuition of Montessori training for the ages/grades in a teacher's classroom. Since CMP pays for the tuition, the teacher won't receive the Montessori certificate stipend (that appears on the pay scale) until year five of working with CMP.</div>
