It is of course also just a break from the academic rigors of the school day. FernLeaf’s Lunchtime Assistants provide direct supervision during lunch time but are also there to help students navigate social dynamics, digest the happenings of their day, and to make the most of this important unstructured time. Candidates should have a demonstrated commitment to and ability to build relationships with children. 11:30 AM - 1:30 PM Monday through Thursday.
