Schedule & Part-Time Position Expectations

Extended Day Instructors are part-time Auxiliary Programs staff members, with regular work primarily taking place during after-school hours. Additional hours may occasionally be available or required for program needs, including school events, childcare, evening programs, and weekend events.

Because this is a part-time Extended Day position, instructors do not follow the same school meeting schedule as full-time classroom teachers. Extended Day staff participate in meetings, training, and professional development specifically required for their role and program responsibilities.
