Afterschool Group Leader - Part-Time, Alpha - $50,000/year USD
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences.
We need to decide which sections to include. The posting includes:
- About the role (description)
- What You Will Be Doing (responsibilities)
- What You Won’t Be Doing (maybe not needed? but could be part of responsibilities? It's a list of things not doing; could be omitted? It's substantive but maybe not needed as separate section; but we could include under Responsibilities? The instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can have a Responsibilities section with list of duties (what you will be doing). The "What You Won't Be Doing" could be another list but maybe not needed; but it's substantive. Could include as a separate section "What You Won't Be Doing". However the allowed headings list includes About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Not "What You Won't Be Doing". We could incorporate that into Responsibilities as a note? But better to follow allowed headings. We can maybe treat "What You Won't Be Doing" as part of Responsibilities (maybe as a sublist). But the instruction says include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it. We have content for About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications (maybe Basic Requirements and Nice-to-have Requirements), Skills (maybe communication etc), Benefits (maybe none explicit), Pay (yes), Schedule (yes). Also About Alpha (maybe About the role? Actually "About Alpha" is separate). Could treat "About Alpha" as About the role? The heading "About the role" is generic; we could put the description there. But we also have "About Alpha" describing company; could be part of About the role or separate? The allowed headings include About the role, not About the company. But we could still include About Alpha as a paragraph under About the role? Might be okay.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include pay and schedule details.
Let's extract:
- Role: Afterschool Group Leader (Alpha Hours). Part-time, in-person, Manhattan Financial District, schedule: Monday-Thursday 3:30pm-6:30pm, Saturday 8:30am-1:30pm (~20 hrs/week).

- Basic Requirements:
* Ability to work in person in Manhattan’s Financial District every Monday–Thursday from 3:30 p.m.–6:30 p.m. and Saturday from 8:30 a.m.–1:30 p.m., approx 20 hrs/week.
* Currently enrolled in college or have completed a bachelor’s degree.
* Prior work or volunteer experience directly responsible for school-age children, such as in a school, camp, afterschool program, youth program, coaching, or tutoring setting.
* Ability to independently manage a group of students, maintain clear behavior standards, and keep students focused and motivated.
* Strong verbal communication and facilitation skills, with ability to give clear instructions and generate active participation.

* Education work that pays like it matters: Alpha offers six-figure roles for people ready to help build a radically better school experience.
* A culture built for builders: Alpha is fast-moving, ambitious, and student focused. It’s for people who want to improve the system, not maintain it.
* Alpha is where you can do the most meaningful work of your career.
* There is so much to cover for this exciting role, and space here is limited. Hit the Apply button if you found this interesting and want to learn more. We look forward to meeting you! (This is application instruction; we should remove application instructions per rule: remove application instructions. So we should drop that sentence.)
- Working with us: This is a part-time (20 hours per week), long-term position. The position is immediately available and requires entering into an independent contractor agreement with Crossover as a Contractor of Record. The compensation level for this role is $50 USD/hour, which equates to $50,000 USD/year assuming 20 hours per week and 50 weeks per year. The payment period is weekly. Consult www.crossover.com/help-and-faqs for more details on this topic. Crossover Job Code: LJ-5851-US-Spotswoo-AfterschoolGro (we should drop Job ID as per rule: do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we can drop the Job Code line.)
We need to avoid duplication. The schedule appears both in Basic Requirements and Working with us. We'll include schedule once.
We need to decide sections:
- About the role: could contain the introductory paragraph: "Alpha is opening new campuses all over America. Why? Because their students love school, learn valuable life skills, and run laps around their peers academically." plus the description about role: "Alpha is hiring. Be the reason kids look forward to 4 p.m. You love working with kids, but you don’t need lesson plans, grading, or lectures to make an impact. At Alpha Hours, you’ll lead students in grades 3–8 through high-energy afternoons that combine AI-powered academics with hands-on life skills. Your job is to keep students focused, motivated, participating, and excited to come back. About half your time will be spent guiding students through Alpha’s adaptive, mastery-based academic program. The technology handles the academic instruction. You own the room: setting the pace, maintaining high standards, spotting when focus drops, and getting students back on track. The other half is about life skills. You’ll facilitate workshops in areas such as public speaking, goal-setting, and collaboration, coaching students until they can show what they’ve learned. Alpha is building a different model of education, one designed to help students master academics efficiently and spend more time developing the skills they need for life. This is a part-time, in-person role in Manhattan’s Financial District, with a set afternoon and Saturday schedule. If you want the rewarding parts of working with students without taking lesson plans or grading home, we want to hear from you."
That seems good for About the role.
- Responsibilities: list of What You Will Be Doing (maybe also include Key Responsibilities). We'll combine.
- Requirements: could combine Basic Requirements and Nice-to-have Requirements into a single Requirements section? But we have headings Requirements and Qualifications and Skills. The instruction list includes Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We could treat Basic Requirements as Requirements, Nice-to-have as Qualifications, and communication etc as Skills. However the posting already separates Basic Requirements and Nice-to-have Requirements. We could map:
* Requirements: Basic Requirements (must-haves)
* Qualifications: Nice-to-have Requirements (preferred)
* Skills: maybe the communication and facilitation skills etc. But those are already in Basic Requirements. Could also list under Skills.
But we need to avoid thin sections. Perhaps better to have:
* About the role
* Responsibilities
* Requirements (including both basic and nice-to-have)
* Pay
* Schedule
But we need to follow allowed headings; we can omit Qualifications and Skills if not needed. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can combine.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Pay, Schedule.
We need to include Benefits only if posting states them; none explicit, so omit.
Now we need to format:
About the role
... (the paragraph)
Responsibilities
- ... each bullet
We need to include all bullet points from What You Will Be Doing and maybe also Key Responsibilities (but that's similar). We'll include the five bullets from What You Will Be Doing. Also maybe include the "Drive high student engagement..." as a bullet? Could be included as first bullet. But to avoid duplication, we can include that as a bullet as well. However the instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; we should not omit any. So we need to include that line as well. It is a summary of responsibilities. We could include it as a bullet.
Thus Responsibilities bullets:
- Drive high student engagement and continued participation in Alpha Hours by creating focused, motivating academic sessions and high-energy life-skills experiences.
- Running high-energy academic sessions: Launch sessions, set expectations, and keep 3rd - 8th grade students focused as they work independently through Alpha

But we could still include About Alpha as a paragraph under About the role? Might be okay.
