  • Promoting scholarship opportunities and encouraging students to research and apply for applicable scholarships and awards.

Requirements
  • Bachelor's degree required.
  • Must have experience working with adolescents, and strong communication and interpersonal skills. Ideally, teaching or tutoring experience within schools or organizations that support schools are a plus, but not required.
