Experience Level: Entry Level

Compensation: $18.00 per hour


Empower Young Minds Through STEM

Role: After School Program Facilitator

Reports To: Program Coordinator

Classification: Paid, Part-Time, 5-8 hours/week


About Girlstart

Established in 1997, Girlstart is dedicated to fostering girls' enthusiasm and participation in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) through engaging, nationally recognized informal education initiatives. Our year-round offerings inspire girls to make a difference in the world. These initiatives encompass after school programs, week-long summer camps, community STEM events, and an annual conference for girls.


Role Responsibilities

Girlstart is in search of multiple After School Program Facilitators (known as STEM CREW -- Creative, Resourceful, Empowered Workforce) to guide our interactive, hands-on, STEM-oriented after school programs in North Texas, particularly within designated school districts. Our after school sessions occur weekly for one hour (with variations between 1-1.5 hours) immediately following the school day. The goal of our after school initiative is to offer 20-25 girls an enjoyable, complimentary STEM enrichment experience that boosts their confidence and motivates them to pursue higher education and explore broader career pathways. This role presents a fulfilling opportunity to engage directly with 4th-5th grade girls, empowering them through science, technology, engineering, and math activities.

Program facilitators will receive training from program coordinators/managers. North Texas Program Facilitators will also report to the North Texas Senior Program Coordinator for guidance regarding after school clubs, office hours, and additional opportunities.


Commitment & Schedule

We prefer After School Program Facilitators to be available two afternoons a week (Monday through Thursday, with limited options on Fridays) to lead two programs. Potential candidates should be available around 2 PM on program days; sessions typically run from 3:00-4:00 PM at the respective elementary schools.


Girlstart's After School Program Facilitator commitment is 5-8 hours/week. Leading two after school programs entails approximately a 6-hour weekly commitment, which includes lesson preparation, travel to the location, conducting the activity, and cleanup. In addition to the 6 hours, facilitators are encouraged to allocate 1-2 office hours for practice, material organization, and inquiries regarding the activities and classroom management. Office hours are held once a week at Girlstart's North Texas office.


Ongoing mandatory training will be provided throughout the duration of the position.
