Employment at Friends School of Minnesota

Friends School is seeking to fill the following positions:

Classroom Aide

The primary responsibility of a classroom aide is to assist teachers in supporting the success of all students. Some of the tasks teachers may ask aides to do include:

  • Daily check-in at 9 a.m. with grade level teacher
  • Meeting with students in small groups or one-on-one for instruction
  • Reading and/or writing support for test-taking
  • Carrying out copying or materials preparation work 
  • Helping to monitor a class or group of students
  • Helping keep students on a task assigned by a teacher
  • Providing conflict resolution facilitation during recess and lunch

It is necessary for a classroom aide to maintain positive relationships with teachers and students. While the first priority is to carry out assignments from the teacher, taking appropriate initiative is also important and valued. It is critical that aides arrive on time.

A classroom aide will also be assigned lunch/recess and arrival/dismissal, and release day duties as needed.
