ABOUT PLAYWORKS

We believe in the power of play to bring out the best in every kid. We are changing the school climate by leveraging the power of safe, fun, and healthy play at school every day. We create a place for every kid on the playground to feel included, be active, and build valuable social and emotional skills. We partner with schools, districts, and after-school programs to provide a service or mix of services including on-site coaches, professional training for school staff who support recess, and consultative partnerships.

Playworks Coaches are AmeriCorps members who are positioned in Boston Public Elementary Schools to be a champion of play. As an AmeriCorps member you will join with other Boston Coaches, nearly 300,000 other members nationwide, and over one million alumni nationally who have committed their time and talents to strengthen communities. Partnership organizations, like Playworks, engage with AmeriCorps members to improve the communities they serve.

How you'll make an impact:

  • Create a safe and inclusive recess on the playground by being a caring role model to ensure that every kid plays every day.
  • Implement a youth leadership program by providing student leadership opportunities at recess and facilitating trainings for a cohort of students before or after school.
  • Lead individual classes to build youth leadership skills, promote cooperation, and introduce new games that kids can play on the playground, including the rules and boundaries.
  • Enlist and coach students in interscholastic/developmental sports leagues that might include basketball, volleyball, or soccer.
  • Design and implement a community event during the year that engages students' families at the school site.
  • Recruit and coordinate volunteers who will join you at recess to strengthen school climate.
  • Develop a strong school culture by influencing, motivating and building rapport with faculty, administrators, parents, and volunteers.
  • Participate in national days of service and some weekend service projects in the greater community.

  • Experience leading or teaching groups of children with the ability to engage and inspire youth
  • Must be an organized self-starter exhibiting good judgment with the flexibility to adapt to shifting priorities and demands

  • Deep commitment to national and community service as demonstrated through volunteerism or other service work
  • Experience interacting with diverse communities and the ability to integrate into an existing school community
  • Ongoing access to reliable transportation to and from your assigned school site

The results of state and FBI criminal history background checks and national sexual offender checks through the National Sex Offender Public Registry Website (NSOPW) are considered.
  • Successful completion of a Tuberculosis (TB) test and CPR and First Aid certification upon hire
