  • Lead coordination of senior activities, helping create memorable and meaningful experiences for graduating students
  • Serve as a welcoming and knowledgeable point of contact for students, families, faculty, and visitors
  • Partner across departments, including Talent and Engagement, Athletics, Facilities, and Dining Services to support school wide initiatives
  • Support communication efforts through email, phone, and in person interactions with professionalism and warmth
  • Assist with guest teacher coordination and general office operations

Who You Are

  • Exceptionally detail oriented, you notice what others miss and take pride in accuracy and organization
  • A collaborative team player who builds strong relationships across a community
  • Calm, flexible, and solutions focused in a fast paced environment with competing priorities
  • A strong communicator who brings clarity, professionalism, and warmth to every interaction
  • Discreet and trustworthy when handling sensitive information
  • Energized by working in a school setting and engaging with high school students

What You Bring

  • Bachelor’s Degree required
  • Experience in an administrative, school, or office environment preferred
  • Proficiency in Google Workspace and Microsoft Office
  • Strong organizational, time management, and problem-solving skills
  • A commitment to supporting a positive, inclusive, and student-centered community
