About City Year
City Year is an AmeriCorps program dedicated to helping students across schools succeed. Our teams of AmeriCorps members provide comprehensive support to students, classrooms, and the entire school community. Our mission is to ensure that students receive a high-quality education that equips them with the necessary skills and mindset to thrive and contribute to their communities.
About the Role
As a Student Success Coach and Mentor, you will serve as a City Year AmeriCorps Member, focusing on coaching and mentoring elementary, middle, and/or high school students. Your service is designed to help students achieve academic success, improve attendance, and develop positive behaviors at school.
You will plan and monitor individual student progress while collaborating closely with teachers on whole-class instruction, breakout spaces, and in-class student assistance. This role is not just about executing tasks; it is about building relationships and fostering growth. You will work one-on-one and in small groups to develop literacy and math skills, create engaging behavior management systems, and cultivate interpersonal skills through proven strategies of learning, practice, reflection, and repetition.
While experience in these specific tasks is not required, you will receive 2-4 weeks of training at the beginning of the year to prepare you for success. Throughout your service, you will be supported by partner teachers and school staff every step of the way.
Beyond the classroom, you will support whole-school initiatives to increase engagement with students and families. This includes leading extended day and virtual programming before, during, and after school, ranging from academic enrichment and homework support to recreation, student clubs, and leadership development. You will also help create and co-lead events that recognize and celebrate student growth in math, literacy, attendance, and behavior.
