About the School
Located in Hershey, PA, the Milton Hershey School (MHS) is a top-notch home and school where over 2,200 pre-K through 12th grade students from disadvantaged backgrounds receive an extraordinary, cost-free, career-focused education. Established in 1909 by Milton and Catherine Hershey, the school was fully endowed to ensure this mission continues. Thanks to their foresight, MHS has over 12,000 graduates and continues to expand to serve more students.
About the Role
MHS is hiring married couples to serve as Full-time Flex Houseparents in a unique and life-changing career. In this role, couples reside in on-campus student homes to provide care, guidance, supervision, and support for a group of approximately 8–13 students. Flex Houseparents play a vital role in creating a structured, family-like environment that fosters students' academic, emotional, and social development so they can reach their full potential.
Upon hire, Flex Houseparents initially support various student homes, following a schedule of nine consecutive days on duty followed by three days off. On weekdays, houseparents have unscheduled time while students are in school. Flex Houseparents eventually transition into a Placed Houseparent role, where they live and work with the same group of students in their own student home.
Hiring Process
This is a unique, challenging, and rewarding career that requires a high level of commitment to student success from both spouses. For consideration, both spouses must complete individual employment applications. To learn more and apply, visit www.mhskids.org.
