The Oak Rooms serves children aged 3 (by October 1st) to Kindergarten. The EC intern would be with Saloni Mathur, Head Teacher. Mrs. Mathur is an exemplary Montessorian. She is loving, empathetic, patient, observant, mindful, and lives the Montessori philosophy every day. She has experience mentoring an intern and is participating in the American Montessori Society Emerging Leader Fellowship Program 2020-2021.

The EC intern will experience team collaboration among both Oak Room classes creating our year-long project, Holiday and End of Year performance, parent-teacher conferences, child-directed lessons, lesson planning, observing, planning the next steps, etc. Oak Room classes often merge during the afternoon by opening the doors connecting both spaces. This will allow the intern to work with Janet Waiman, Christine Raymond, and Madeline Taylor. Mrs. Waiman is very creative, she is always coming up with great child-directed art lessons and beautiful extensions. Mrs. Raymond has excellent classroom management skills, tracking skills, follow-through, and is consistent. Mrs. Taylor does a wonderful job preparing the Third Year student for moving on to the public school as well as speaking Spanish with the children.

Heads of Schools were co-teachers that met while working at LHMS where they discovered a shared love for the Montessori education system and childhood development. Together they believe in the three core values of Long Hill Montessori School; confidence, independence, and peace. With those values in mind, LHMS students learn to think critically, work collaboratively, and to be empowered—skills that prepare children for success in today’s world. The school enrolls students ages 2 through kindergarten.

We are looking forward to welcoming interns to our beautiful and welcoming environment. Our team works hard to create a space that feels like the next step from home. We are committed to professional development for all staff, community development, and collaborating with parents. We all attend the NJMAC Conference every year and have outside professionals come in for PD as well. We host several community events throughout the year, Back to School, Halloween Trunk or Treat, Teacher for a Day, etc. Parent Workshops are given approximately once a month from topics ranging for Montessori in the Home to Discipling with Grace & Courtesy.

As leaders, we try to prepare an environment and live our mission through the school community; our children, teachers, staff, and parents – confidence, independence, and peace.

We look forward to connecting with you and meeting with potential interns.
