PE Teacher and Afterschool Coordinator

This is a part-time position with two connected halves. In the early afternoon, the teacher leads physical education for elementary students, grades one through six. In the later afternoon, the same person runs the after-school program, the bridge between the end of the school day and the moment a child is picked up. The first half calls for energy and structure.

The second calls for organization, communication, and watchfulness. Both call for someone who knows children well.
