"Kids Who Code" AmeriCorps VISTA Position
The Anacortes School District is now recruiting for a very special one-year AmeriCorps-sponsored volunteer position to initiate a before-school beginning computer coding program for elementary students in poverty. This full-time position, based at Island View Elementary, would help assess and coordinate resources, curricula, outreach to parents and community, and recruitment and training of skilled volunteer leaders in order to launch the program by September 2017. The VISTA member would continue other initiatives already in progress as part of Island View's early-morning program and would support our academic tutors and social/emotional mentors program.
If you are excited about new technology, have some background in STEM-related subjects, love children, and would like an immersive experience in the world of education, we welcome you to apply to be a part of our team!
To learn more about this position or about AmeriCorps VISTA, please contact ASD Volunteer Coordinator Keiko McCracken, kmccracken@asd103.org or 360.293.1234, or apply online at:
