Town School for Boys is seeking a collaborative and experienced educator to mentor our students into a deep connection with the natural world. This role as the Director of Outdoor Studies for the 2025-26 school year represents a unique opportunity. Our specialized program blends the strength of relational education and place-based learning with the academic excellence of the Town School education. As we extend our classrooms from the building into the heart of the Presidio forest we elevate the curriculum. Environmental stewardship, storytelling, communication, and leadership bring new dimensions to our already rich learning environments. This program creates a safe and healthy classroom outside in the Presidio forest with strong threads of connection woven into the core curriculum back at school.
We honor the time it takes for children to build a relationship with nature and each other. We hope our Town boys will come to see themselves as part of the natural world rather than separate from it. In supporting and mentoring this relationship with nature we cultivate the seeds of stewardship in our future Town School graduates. The Director and additional field Instructors help students gain confidence, experience, and appreciation for the outdoors through core routines and experiences such as hiking, stewardship projects, orienteering, stream ecology, forest ecology, geology, and survival skills.
We are looking for an outdoor leader who is enthusiastic, collaborative, and interested in mentoring children and youth through a connection with the natural world. This individual should be open to working with the Town School faculty to connect this outdoor classroom to the curriculum at school. We are looking for a passionate teacher who is flexible and inspired by working in nature with children, rain, or shine.
To be successful as the Director of Outdoor Studies, you should have an insightful understanding of effective teaching methods for different developmental stages, needs and aptitudes. The candidate should have excellent listening and observational skills, as well as an empathetic mindset. The ideal candidate should want to work with a team collaboratively on everyday department needs and share collective and individual goals for the students, teachers, and school.
