Living Montessori Education Community was founded by Afrose Amlani in 2006 in Bellevue, WA with a vision of optimizing children’s full potential and preparing them for life in our constantly evolving global communities.

At Living Montessori we defy the group mentality and see each child as an individual. Serving children of 3 months to grade 5, we prepare the environment for them to develop life skills through independent exploration. Interactions between the environment, the teacher and the child foster self-discovery, and a love of learning and cultivate each child’s social, emotional, intellectual and spiritual development.

Our community is about people. We care about our children, our families and our staff. “People,” working together, in the best interest of children, is what makes us want to come to work every day. Join our growing team and contribute to the collaborative effort in delivering nothing short of excellence to our children and families. Bring your ideas and your talents and help us inspire every child to be all that he/she can be.

We will continually invest in your well being, education, and benefits. You can count on a supportive, beautiful environment, freshly prepared organic meals, predictable daily planning time, a dedicated, fully equipped staff work room with all the materials you need so you can focus on enriching your work, inspiring children and families and changing lives.

With Afrose’s leadership and the contribution of our engaged and talented staff, our organization continues to grow and make a difference in the lives of hundreds of families. We are the first school to hire an in-house nutritionist and offer the most highly nutritious organic meal program for children and staff.

We currently serve 200 students and continue to expanded. To meet the growing demands of our community and to ensure the most conducive learning environment for our students and optimal working conditions for our staff, in 2010 we purpose designed our 30,000 square feet building, with 95% green materials, a flow of abundant natural light and plants connecting the outdoors to indoor, large classrooms, fully equipped teacher work room, a luxurious staff lounge, a yoga studio, music room and a gym. Our nature inspired playground includes slides embedded into natural mounds, natural climbing structures and organic gardens full of fruits, herbs and vegetables, fostering connection to the earth, respect, curiosity and a love of learning.

In addition to our rigorous Montessori academic program our students benefit from yoga, swimming, music and movement, creative arts, drama and Spanish during the school day program and specialty enrichment programs such as Lego engineering, martial arts, dance and more during the after school hours.

To make Living Montessori available to more children a portion of the revenue applies towards financial scholarships for under privileged families.

Living Montessori sponsors teacher education workshops quarterly, making continuing education accessible to all educators.

We look forward to working with more talented and caring individuals to help us reach hundreds of more children and their families.

Teacher Assistant in Bellevue, WA

CONS: - Admin will cancel a morning meeting an hour or even less before the meeting starts. Morning meetings are usually before opening and happen on Fridays. Most people are traveling from out of Bellevue or commuting. Most employees will be on their way in when they get a text saying that the meeting is canceled. This has happened many times for both teachers and assistant teachers. - School...

There needs to be more incluisive and non discrimination training. There needs to be a more honest dialog with the staff. There should never be a culture of intimidation or attrition.
