Close‑knit learning environments. Skilled educators. A culture that takes kids seriously as learners and leaders.

About the Role

The Campus Coordinator ensures the campus runs smoothly every day. You are a flexible, steady presence who fills in wherever needed to keep students safe and the day on track. You support operations, family experience, safety, and logistics so Primer Leaders and Studio Guides can focus on teaching. You manage arrival, attendance, lunch, recess, facilities needs, and dismissal while keeping the campus organized, safe, and welcoming. You are the operational heartbeat of the school and a daily partner to the Campus Leader.

• Help host tours in coordination with Primer Headquarters
• Greet families and support daily arrival routines
• Take attendance and manage morning logistics
• Support classrooms and Studio Guides with operational needs
• Monitor hallways, bathrooms, recess, and shared spaces for safety
• Assist with setup, supplies, copies, and materials
• Communicate daily updates and concerns to the Campus Leader
• Maintain campus cleanliness and organization throughout the day

• Manage dismissal routines and verify student pickup
• Flag facilities needs and follow safety procedures

What We’re Looking For

• Ideally, 2+ years of related experience
• Warm, welcoming presence with families and students
• Highly reliable, organized, and consistent
• Flexible and able to support wherever needed
• Strong communicator who notices details
• Calm under pressure and able to multitask
• Proactive—solves problems before they escape

Why this role may not be a fit
