Opportunity Title Science Summer Camp Counselor

Theme
Education: Access & Equity

Description
The Science Factory is looking for counselors for our Summer Science Adventure camps. We run nine weeks of summer camps that serve over 400 kids from ages 3 to 14. We need counselors in every classroom, every day. You will assist the teachers in presenting lessons, monitor kids during breaks, and help with general setup and clean-up of classrooms. Join us for one week, or for the whole summer. You will assist the teachers in delivering fun, hands-on lessons. We also need help in supervising kids before and after camp. A two-hour training session will be scheduled in June. No special science knowledge is needed; we will give you all of the training you need.
