Jobs at Thursday School
This Co-op depends on each member’s active participation. Whether this is teaching, assisting, acting as hall monitor, hanging signs, making coffee, being a class/job sub or helping in the nursery & toddler rooms; there is something for everyone. God has given us all gifts and we ask that you consider this when signing up on registration day and choosing jobs. Your older children can always assist in set up and clean up at co-op!
Most jobs are chosen during registration, and the rest are assigned before the first day of co-op in September.
As you can see below, there are MANY jobs to do for the co-op. Our goal is to give all parents one block off. This is not only to give everyone a break, but also to give everyone a chance to meet and connect with other homeschooling parents. If we are short handed or extra help is needed, you are not guaranteed a block off, you will be put to work.
...and please remember that... many hands make light work!
Teacher Assistants (T.A.)
TA is a parent that helps in a class assisting the teacher and taking attendance. For accountability sake, we have at least one other adult in the classrooms besides the teacher. In some classes this assistant is there for this purpose only, but others will have a more active role. We encourage the teachers to communicate with their assistants what will be most helpful for their class situation. In case of absences, teachers will call on their assistants to fill in for them.
