Floater - SAGE EAST

Benefits: 401(k) matchingDental insurance At SAGE PREP, we believe young children are capable of more than the world often expects of them. Our classrooms honor learning through play, and then we go further: journal writing, rich academic vocabulary, and a strong foundation in literacy and numeracy. Every classroom counts on a strong team to make that happen, and our Floater keeps that team strong all day long. Who You Are You love children, and it shows. You are enthusiastic, energetic, and ready to jump in wherever you are needed. One hour you might be supporting a toddler room, and the next you might be leading a Pre-K activity, and you love that variety. You adapt quickly, take initiative, and keep a positive attitude even when the day takes an unexpected turn. You work well with others and know that great teamwork makes great classrooms.
