- Monitor for student safety, medical emergencies, or dietary concern awareness (e.g., severe allergies or designated nut-free seating).
- Assist students with basic cafeteria needs (condiment stations, recycling/waste disposal, line management).
- De-escalation: Ability to remain calm under pressure and de-escalate minor peer conflicts before they escalated.
- Education: High School Diploma or equivalent.
- Experience: Prior experience working with upper elementary or middle school-aged children preferred.
- Physical Demands: Ability to stand, walk, bend, and move continuously for the duration of the 2-hour shift.
- Background Check: Must clear required state/district criminal background checks and child protection clearances prior to hire.
