ABOUT BEZOS ACADEMY At Bezos Academy, we believe all children deserve the great start that excellent early education provides, including in under-resourced communities. Our mission is to nurture the potential in every child to become a creative leader, original thinker, and lifelong learner by inventing the solutions needed to scale early childhood education. We are a unique organization that realizes our mission in two ways. First, we operate a multi-state network of schools in under-resourced communities, offering quality Montessori-inspired preschool at no cost to families. Second, we create tools, products, technology, and other solutions designed to reach young children and their caregivers well beyond the walls of our schools. We aspire to have a profound, large-scale impact on children ages zero to five.   ABOUT THE ROLE As the Director of Student and Family Support at Bezos Academy, you will lead the vision, strategy, and systems that ensure children and families receive the support they need to thrive in our preschools across the country. You will evolve and strengthen our organization‑wide approach to inclusive practices, early identification of developmental needs, and multi‑tiered systems of support. Working in close partnership with school leaders, educators, legal partners, and central teams, you will translate deep expertise in early childhood inclusive practices, developmental supports, and multi-tiered systems of support into scalable frameworks, clear guidance, and practical tools that empower schools to serve children with a range of strengths, needs, and abilities. You bring experience leading student support and inclusion services at a systems level, along with the judgment, empathy, and clarity needed to navigate complex decisions alongside families and school teams. You are a trusted thought partner and practitioner and are equally comfortable setting long‑term strategy, developing others, and engaging directly in nuanced child‑level problem solving. Above all, you are energized by our mission and the opportunity to build something high impact and lasting for young children and their families.   LOCATION(S) Arizona, Florida, Kentucky, Texas, or Washington and/or within two hours’ drive to multiple Bezos Academy preschools (please see our  website for school locations); Seattle, WA preferred Relocation support is available for this role for candidates relocating to Seattle   COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS This is a full-time, benefits-eligible, exempt (salaried) position.
