Supporting the FCPS After-School Program

The Fairfax County Public Schools After-School program affords interested candidates the opportunity to work with groups of middle school students in a variety of academic, enrichment, youth development, and recreational activities from 2:30 p.m. – 6:00 p.m. daily.  We are looking for help with a myriad of activities to include but not be limited to tutoring; teaching drama, dance, cooking, painting, gardening, and  creative writing; supervising a literacy, math, technology, or science activity; coaching a sports activity; or teaching aerobics.  Work one-to-three hours per day for one-to-five days a week at multiple sites, or simply concentrate at one location.  Candidates must be able to establish excellent rapport with middle school students and a willingness to serve as a positive role model.  The ability to communicate and collaborate with other after-school staff, classroom teachers, administrators, parents, and community members is essential.  Salary is dependent on experience and education level.  Candidates must be able to attend site-based staff development sessions.  Bilingual ability preferred.  Openings available in 26 FCPS middle schools.  Interested persons should e-mail or fax a letter of interest along with a resume to the after-school specialist at the middle school of interest.  To find the appropriate middle school contact information, check the list of middle school programs, and search for the after-school specialist information; or, call the middle school and ask to speak to the after-school specialist.
