Do you like creatively working with kids? Is working in a team something you enjoy?

Our Palo Alto elementary students learn to think critically, to question each other, and to apply the creative principals for their future ahead. At Stratford Schools we look to our lunch and extended day teachers to be leaders in and outside the classroom, to guide our students in a nurturing and learning environment.

A little about us

Stratford School is an independent private school founded on the belief that education is a significant influence in the life of a child. Our mission is to create a school community that inspires children to realize their full potential, while providing a safe and nurturing school environment. To support our mission, we bring together principals, teachers, and parents who are passionate about education. Together, we provide the best possible learning environment for our students.

A little about you

You are a positive, motivated, and energetic person who enjoys working as part of a team. You bring creativity to all that you do. Listening and being patient is second nature to you and encouraging others is your strength.

A typical day

You are responsible for carrying out all the duties necessary for the day-to-day elementary lunch and extended day operations. Supervise students in indoor and outdoor play, crafts, and snacks. Also embedded in the time is an opportunity for our students to work on their homework under your guidance and supervision. Working in a highly energized setting while maintaining a safe and educational learning environment is a must.

Musts

Being a strong communicator and having an abundance of patience is the key to success for our extended day professionals.
