Class Teacher: As a Class Teacher you are expected to instruct a 1hr Class. This includes creating the syllabus, providing curriculum/supplies, and managing the environment of the classroom. You may charge a supply fee up to $20/student. You will be provided a Class Assistant. In addition, you are asked to be a Class Assistant for another Teacher. You will also have an hour break with coffee/light brunch.
Class Assistant: As a Class Assistant your role is to support the Teacher and students in executing the curriculum of the course and lead the class in the case of the Teacher’s absence. You will also have an hour break with coffee/light brunch.
Nursery/Toddler Room Volunteer: As a Nursery/Toddler Room Volunteer you would provide childcare for all 10 meetings for two of the class periods. You will also have an hour break with coffee/light brunch. This role would fall under the Class Assistant fee structure.
Drop-off Parent: There are no volunteer requirements. Please ensure your student(s) is dropped off and picked up on time. We would love for you to join us for lunch!
Floater: A Class Assistant who helps where needed each week (fills in gaps, covers absences, etc)
