• Encourage strong parent participation
• Create experiences that make families feel welcomed and connected
• Develop partnerships with neighborhood organizations and businesses

Staff Leadership

• Lead, motivate, and hold teaching staff accountable
• Set a positive, energetic tone for the team
• Coach educators through regular feedback and check-ins
• Address performance concerns directly and professionally
• Help staff communicate confidently with parents
• Support classroom consistency, teamwork, and reliability
• Model excellent customer service and professional behavior

Program Leadership

• Support classroom operations and provide coverage when needed
• Monitor classrooms for safety, quality, and PA DHS compliance
• Help maintain accurate classroom and developmental records
• Support developmentally appropriate, Montessori-inspired learning
• Ensure classrooms are tour-ready, organized, and welcoming
• Work closely with school leadership to support enrollment and retention goals

• You can lead staff with warmth, clarity, and accountability
