    • Provide feedback to classroom teachers/advisors when specific children or groups are experiencing difficulty during outdoor ed/playtime
  • Maintain, monitor, and replenish ECC teaching materials

  • Keep current in contemporary pedagogical thinking, strategies, and techniques by reading professional journals and attending professional conferences, workshops, and courses
  • Coordinate efforts of assistant teachers, interns, student teachers, and other adults in the classroom

  • Provide for the physical safety of children through anticipation and removal of hazards, visual observation of children active or at rest, and appropriately responding to, documenting, and communicating about injuries
  • Help to coordinate and be present during our Early Risers (early drop-off) program on the playground

In the spirit of pay transparency we share the hourly rate range for this position: $23.00 - $51.00. Hourly rate is exclusive of fringe benefits, retirement plan employer contributions or potential stipends (for eligible employees). Pay ranges at SAA are reasonable estimates of what the School anticipates paying for a role but are not guaranteed. If hired at SAA, your final hourly rate will be determined by factors such as skills, education, experience, job level, part-time status and number of months of work per academic year. In addition to those factors, we believe in the importance of pay equity and consider internal equity with our current employees as a part of any final offer. Please keep in mind that the range mentioned above is the full hourly rate range for the role. Hiring at the maximum of the range is not typical for SAA in order to allow for future and continued hourly rate growth.
