YRE Instructor Level 1, Part-Time

Milton Hershey School, Hershey, Pennsylvania, United States, 17033


Description: Milton Hershey School (MHS) is a tuition free, home, and private school for over 2,000 Pre-K through 12th grade students.

Founded in 1909 by Milton and Catherine Hershey, the lives of almost 12,000 students have been positively transformed through MHS’s high-quality career-focused education, nurturing home life, and extensive extra-curricular opportunities.

Some students do return home over breaks and during the summer months. Many choose to stay at MHS. For these students, we offer the Year-Round Experiences (YRE) program. It operates when school is not in session. Also, students are required to return to MHS two weeks before classes begin in August. During this time, they prepare for the new school year. They also participate in Divisional Mandatory Student Return activities and begin VPA, and Athletic pre-season practices.

MHS is currently seeking engaging individuals to join the Year-Round Experiences (YRE),

on a seasonal basis,

as YRE Instructor Level 1.

The YRE Instructor Level 1 is mainly responsible for student supervision, while also assisting the lead instructor of an activity, as needed, with the implementation of the activities for the duration of the program during scheduled calendar breaks (Fall Long Weekend, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Presidents Day Weekend, Easter, and Summer). YRE programming is designed to encourage students to remain on campus in a safe, fun, and nurturing environment. A variety of programs provide MHS students with the opportunity to explore a passion or interest in an experiential setting. The Level 1 seasonal staff are expected to ensure the safety and well-being of all students in their assigned group.
