If you've applied with Friendzy before, you know the drill - we get a lot of applications This is not to deter you from applying (Please, apply) But simply to say, please be patient with us as we thoughtfully review each and every resume and cover letter that comes through.

Please also note that we place a high preference on qualified candidates that can bring a unique cultural background and perspective to the role. We serve a diverse population through our school partners and are looking for candidates who mirror that diverse population including BIPOC, Latinx, AAPI and dual language speaking candidates.

The Job Post Highlight Reel ///

There is usually a lot of ground to cover with a job posting and things can get long and dry pretty quickly, so here's the highlight reel: If you ooze creativity, have experience in the extraordinary world of elementary and middle school, consider yourself an excellent writer, find yourself naturally adapting lessons to meet the needs of your students and could see yourself collaborating with others to develop a knock-your-socks-off biblical social and emotional learning program for young children - we think you should keep reading (and apply for this job).

About Friendzy ///

Friendzy is a female founded non-profit organization committed to teaching the current generation of students how to be really good friends. A few years into developing our programming we discovered the fancy term for this relationally-based work is social emotional learning or, SEL (more on that story some other time). Friendzy is on a mission to help students develop vital emotional intelligence and social skills like empathy, resilience, self-esteem, goal setting and perspective taking. Our comprehensive programming provides classroom curriculum for teachers, workbooks for students, professional development for the full school staff and family and community resources designed to help parents and caring adults continue the Friendzy at home. We offer both an ideologically neutral and a biblical version of our curriculum, which means we partner with non-public faith-based schools, private non-sectarian schools, charter schools and public schools. We're a small and relatively fresh organization which translates to a scrappy, diverse, agile, multi-talented and FUN team. More than anything, we are a passionate crew determined to walk the talk when it comes to relationships and we are ready to open our arms wide to our next team member.
