EFWMA Application

E.F.W.M.A is a Great Place to Bloom.

Welcome to the Opportunities page at East Fort Worth Montessori Academy. We believe that our shared experiences, cultural backgrounds, collective history, and intelligence make us different

Every student who enters our school has a story we can learn from. We support our students by offering flagship programs that build the skills and confidence they need to thrive. We expect our teachers to challenge students intellectually, listen mindfully, work collaboratively, facilitate holistically, and nurture students joy of learning.

At EFWMA, students are expected to learn how to work together and collaborate towards a common goal. Whether the goal is leaving no trace outdoors, encouraging each other to meet individual goals, or restoring camaraderie between friends. Learning to be a friend or creating boundaries in elementary school is essential. Therefore, when students disagree, we provide tools to help them develop verbal and listening skills to create solutions. An emphasis on the SEL Program focuses on social-emotional learning, ensuring our students are prepared to navigate and drive change in the world.

We believe caring adults hold each other accountable and honest. We lend a helping hand and welcome learning facilitators who desire to build a community where joy and learning intersect.

Before you apply:

We’ve written our job descriptions to be helpful to you. After reading them, you should be able to decide for yourself if you want to be a part of this educational community. The best way to get a first interview is to write thoughtful answers that will make us want to learn more about you. We expect that you will bring that energy to your students each day.

Just as you will critically read every student’s assignments, we will read every application, resume, and cover letter with the same inflection. Nothing is automated.
