The Ecology School provides residential and day environmental education programs for elementary and middle school students. We are a community-oriented organization that works hard to practice what we teach and to teach with intention. We are committed to making every program empowering, informative and fun for our students and pour our hearts, energy and time into our work. Our overnight campus is based in Poland, Maine, just a short trip away from the beautiful White Mountains of New Hampshire and the thriving city of Portland, Maine.

Our strong, supportive community of educators live together onsite for the entirety of the term, allowing an opportunity to make lifelong connections with people from all across the country. Because of the unique bond that develops each term, a considerable network of alumni educators provides support and mentorship for newcomers.

Our administrative team works to maintain a strong support system to ensure that our staff can deliver their very best lessons. An integral part of our mission is to use laughter as a key learning tool. This means our educators are wearing costumes on a daily basis to perform educational skits that help our students make connections.

We are seeking new members of our educator team. A successful educator is someone ready to invest their time and energy into making our community, our programs, and the experiences of our visiting schools the best that they can be. As an Ecology School Educator, you will gain valuable teaching skills, as well as experience with, and insight into, a successful non-profit. We are looking for hard-working individuals, who have a willingness to learn and desire to work with students as they develop their environmental literacy.
