You would develop and implement lesson plans, lead values-based conversations with children, create theme-based experiential elements such as art, music, games, and ritual, and support other teachers.

The ideal candidate would be an experienced educator, comfortable creating and leading group activities including music, art, and games. They would have familiarity working with neurodiversity, be enthusiastic about stepping forward to support social justice, and a knowledge of or willingness to learn about Unitarian Universalism.
