Pros

I have worked in Montessori education for over 12 years, and have never seen a school so committed to its students and staff. The amount of training, professional development, and support I’ve received is, quite frankly, staggering. My supervisors are amazing leaders who empower me to make decisions, encourage me to try new things, and are always there as thought partners when I’m struggling through a challenge. My colleagues are inspiring, and I get to meet and share best practices with administrators across all the Guidepost schools every week. They are an amazing group of school leaders! I began a career in education because I wanted to impact future generations, to help students learn, grow, and become their best selves. Here at Guidepost, I’ve found an organization that is 100% dedicated to the same mission. All the classrooms have the full range of authentic Montessori materials, most of which are brand new. There are Montessori Mentors that help me support the classrooms by offering observations, trainings, webinars, and feedback sessions with teachers. And the teachers light up my day as much as our families. Their warmth, thoughtfulness, and deep care for our students is something to be treasured. I’m grateful for finding Guidepost Montessori, and plan to carry out my life’s work with this incredible team.

Cons

There is a lot to learn and a lot of work to do! This isn't for someone who is looking for a comfy, predictable, easy, "I've got this all down" kind of job. But I enjoy the challenge and couldn't ask for better guides.

Pros

I have been with Guidepost for almost four years, and I am extremely happy in my role as a Children’s House Lead Guide. I truly couldn’t ask for a better position. The work environment is very positive, and I am surrounded by kind, supportive colleagues. The leadership is exceptional—our Head of School is an amazing, understanding, and uplifting person who creates a culture where everyone feels valued we feel supported and I’ve learn so many new skills. Even in last-minute or challenging situations, she responds with positivity and grace. I feel very supported and appreciated every day.

Cons

There are very few downsides to mention. Like any workplace, occasional last-minute situations can arise, but they are handled very well by head of school.

Pros

I’ve been at Guidepost for four years, and it has truly been one of the most meaningful experiences of my career. Watching each child grow, gain confidence, and thrive is a joy I never take for granted. I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t wholeheartedly believe in the work we do. The safety and wellbeing of every child is at the center of our mission, and I wouldn’t recommend this school if I didn’t fully trust that each child is cared for with genuine respect, compassion, and intention. Beyond the incredible environment we create for our children, the team here is something special. We support, trust, and genuinely care about one another. I couldn’t write this review without mentioning our admin team. They have created a culture of care, respect, and trust with the staff. They guide us, encourages us, and continually helps us grow. Working at Guidepost has been a magical experience.

Cons

Honestly, there’s not much that I would deem a “con”
