Position Overview Liberation Academy (https://www.liberationacademy.org/ ) seeks a highly organized, energetic, and systems-oriented Before & Aftercare Youth Facilitator to lead our extended day programs for middle school-aged solutionists . Middle school is a unique developmental window. Our program departs from traditional "babysitting" to offer a highly structured, productive environment. In this role, you will maintain consistent routines, assist solutionists with academic homework, facilitate engaging, structured recreational activities, and ensure a safe, positive environment that aligns with our campus-wide operational standards.

Establish and maintain a quiet, focused "study hall" environment. Provide active academic support, guiding solutionists through homework challenges without doing the work for them.

Ensure all security policies are actively met (doors locked, visitor policies enforced, constant visual supervision of all solutionists).

Emergency Protocols:

Be fully prepared to execute safety protocols (Lockdown, Evacuation, Shelter-in-Place) immediately and confidently, carrying the designated emergency folder and orange medical bag when necessary.

Minimum of two (2) years of direct experience working with middle school-aged youth (grades 5-8) in a school, camp, after-school, or recreational setting.

Systems-Oriented Mindset:

Strong comfort level following strict organizational checklists, guidelines, and digital operational platforms.

Reliability & Punctuality:

A stellar track record of punctuality. With before care beginning promptly at 6:00 AM, arriving on time is a non-negotiable safety requirement.

Clear Communication:

Ability to communicate professionally and warmly with parents, school administrators, and team members.

Physical & Environmental Demands:

Ability to actively roam, supervise, and engage in recreational activities alongside solutionists. Pass a comprehensive criminal background check and fingerprinting clearance. First Aid/CPR Certification (or willingness to obtain certification within the first 30 days of hire).
