Wyoming Presbyterian Church seeks organized, reliable support to assist lead teachers in our Sunday School program once a week. Classes are typically small and may include children from nursery school to early middle school.  Teaching aides support lead teachers in preparing the classroom for lessons and with classroom management.  Aides are not responsible for planning or delivering lessons. We are an open and inclusive congregation committed to reflecting God’s unconditional love. No religious affiliation is required, but some experience or training in working with children is an asset we would consider. If you are willing to be a reliable, loving presence and help engage the attention of young children with affection, we would love to hear from you. 

Please email your resume, or a very short statement about you, your experience or your qualifications to: personnel@wyomingpresbyterian.org. Use “Teacher’s Aide” in the subject, to help us find your application

Hours: 2 hours a week (9:30am – 11:30am on Sunday Mornings)

Pay: $50/week.
