2025 Summer Prog Site Coordinator

A Site Coordinator for the PEF Summer Enrichment Program serves as an educational leader, responsible for managing policies and procedures to ensure all students are supervised in a nurturing and enriching environment that meets the mission of PEF Summer.

Our classes are for elementary- and middle-school-aged students. High school students participate in our program as Summer Youth Leader volunteers. We are not offering any high school classes this year.

The Site Coordinator will work closely and collaboratively with PEF staff members to direct, support, and communicate effectively with parents, teachers, and students. This leadership position requires direct supervision of teachers and staff, communication with parents, intervening with student behavior issues, and reporting pertinent information to PEF’s program manager and other assigned staff.

Our 5-week morning program typically begins 1 week after the final day of the PUSD school year (exact dates TBD) and runs 4 days a week for 5 consecutive weeks with the exception of Juneteenth and the 4th of July. Successful Site Coordinator candidates need to be available a week before the program and for the entirety of the program.

Please note:

• Both current PUSD and non-PUSD employees are welcome to apply.
• Prior employment by PEF does not guarantee a position for the 2025 year.
• Site Coordinators must be available for the entire summer program, including before, during, and after operational hours as needed.
• While we try to match candidates to their preferred campus and/or area of interest, we reserve the right to place as needed.
• Positions are contingent on strength of the candidate, and number of positions available. PEF will contact you no later than February, when more details about the program are available.
  

Compensation is a flat-fee amount paid one-time approximately 1 week after the conclusion of the program. This position is an exempt, part-time position with PEF and is not eligible for benefits. Employment is contingent upon verification and timely completion (before program starts) of all mandated payroll tax (W-4, DE4) and employment eligibility (I-9) forms, and also a background check.
