PRLC Preschool is a licensed childcare facility that serves children aged 12 months to 6 years and has been a part of the Greenwood/Phinney Ridge community since 1968. Our school philosophy and curriculum focus on respect, authenticity, and true child-led learning. On any given day you might find our students on a neighborhood walk, purchasing ingredients for a project at the local market, exploring parks and natural spaces throughout the region, or playing on-site in their classrooms & playgrounds. Our teachers select materials and design learning activities based on sensitive observation of the children’s current interests – we spend time reflecting on what we see and hear throughout the classroom and then create opportunities for children to expand on the ideas they are exploring. Ultimately, we view teachers as facilitators, explorers, and supportive models for the children in their care.

When it comes to our staff, we believe that the best way to ensure adults treat children with respect and authenticity is to do the same for them. Our teachers are highly valued by school administration and the community alike. We work hard to ensure that all teachers can take sufficient personal time, meet their physical & mental health needs, and support themselves and their families. We are partnered with and housed in Phinney Ridge Lutheran Church, which is a reconciled ministry. Our program is LGBT+ affirming and rooted firmly in the school of anti-bias education.

We are looking for a few support teachers to join our staff. We’re looking to add full time or part time teachers to join our team. We have flexibility with schedules so please indicate what type of employment you’re looking for.
