About Playworks

• Ensure high‑quality program implementation and operational excellence across all schools, including scheduling, reporting, program documentation, and other administrative tasks.
• Attend and actively participate in trainings, coaching, and professional development.

• Experience working with elementary‑aged students in youth development, recreation, camp, coaching, or educational settings.
