Extended Day Receptionist
San Francisco Friends School educates students in the tradition of Quaker learning. By example and commitment, we hope to inspire all connected with our school to work together toward a peaceful and caring society.
In the Extended Day (K - 4th grades) and After3 (5th - 8th grades) Programs, we believe strongly in the importance of play for all children. We structure the afternoon so that all our students will have the opportunity to find a quiet place to study, but also have the opportunity to play in the way they are most drawn to, from Legos to Four Square, tag to origami. Our aim is to create a space where we can allow students to let it all out, while still maintaining a safe environment. We are looking for individuals who enjoy connecting with kids, love to play, and can help keep everyone safe.
