Join Our Vibrant Learning Community in the Virgin Islands!

Virgin Islands Montessori School and Peter Gruber International Academy (VIMSIA) is located on the stunning island of St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Since 1964, we’ve been proud to offer programs from Toddler through High School. Our well-equipped classrooms, 10-acre lush tropical campus, and exceptional students make learning an exciting adventure every day. At VIMSIA, students, families, and staff come together to create a caring, inclusive, and globally-minded community.

We offer a competitive salary and benefits package, and we’re excited to welcome passionate educators to our team. Please note, due to immigration restrictions, preference will be given to candidates legally authorized to work in the U.S. While we receive many applications, only finalists will be contacted. Thank you in advance for your interest!

Montessori Program: 12 months – Grade 5

At the Primary level, we are an Association Montessori Internationale (AMI) school. Lead Primary and Elementary teachers (Primary, Lower, and Upper Elementary) must be AMI-certified. We review AMI-certified resumes year-round.

Peter Gruber International Academy (PGIA): Grades 6 – 12

PGIA teachers guide students through the International Baccalaureate (IB) Programme. Our curriculum follows the IB MYP (grades 6–10) and IB DP (grades 11–12). VIMSIA is proud to be the first and only IB World School in the U.S. Virgin Islands, authorized for the Diploma Programme in 2009 and the Middle Years Programme in 2010.

We welcome resumes from experienced Middle and High School teachers across all disciplines, preferably with at least one year of teaching experience. IB experience is a plus, but we can provide training for qualified candidates. Resumes are reviewed year-round.
