Where the Jobs Are

  

Designed especially for Reggio Emilia inspired settings, the NAREA JOBS SITE aims to support those seeking employment as well as those searching for job applicants. Through the NAREA JOBS SITE, we hope that positive, new connections will be established throughout our Reggio Emilia inspired community in North America. Here's an example of what you will find on our page:

 

"The successful candidate will embody the qualities of progressive education and have experience supervising teaching staff and/or administering a preschool program...The Director must support the school's educational vision, values and the study of the Reggio Emilia approach."

 

Visit the NAREA JOBS SITE to learn about job openings in your area or to submit a job posting. Currently, there are jobs available in SC, OH, IL, WA, MA, ME, OK, NY, NJ, CA, OR, GA, VA, CO and D.C. New jobs are added frequently, so check back often! 

 

Will You Join Us?

 

NAREA's mission is to build a diverse community of advocates and educators to promote and defend the rights of children, families, and educators of all cultures through a collaboration of colleagues inspired by the philosophies and experiences of the 0-6 education project of Reggio Emilia, Italy. Joining NAREA is a great way to support this ongoing work, which seeks to elevate both the quality of life and the quality of schools and centers for young children.
