Role details
Job description
Workshop Host: Student Discovery Labs
Flourish Schools
Traveling role: Apache Junction, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Buckeye, and Maricopa area, AZ | $30/hour
About the role
Flourish Schools is a private school network in the greater Phoenix area built around project-based learning and student ownership. We introduce families to Flourish through pop-up workshops for kids, paired with open houses for parents. We need one Workshop Host to run these events at host sites across the Valley.
This is not a teaching job. You won't write lessons or grade anything. We hand you a proven workshop playbook. Your job is to bring it to life so well that kids walk out begging their parents to enroll.
If you've been a camp counselor, Young Life leader, orientation leader, or the person everyone wanted in charge of the game, we want to talk to you.
Current workshop themes:
- Culinary Arts: kids explore the chemistry hiding in ice cream, then become the chef, customizing flavors and churning their own batch
- Forensic Science: kids are sworn in as junior investigators, lifting fingerprints and analyzing evidence to crack a staged classroom "crime"
- Structural Engineering: kids learn how engineers distribute weight, then design, build, and test their own bridge against the class's toughest challenge
Each event runs 60 to 90 minutes with the kids, followed by a 30-minute session with parents about Flourish.
Good to know
- $30/hour to start, roughly 84 hours of event time across the initial run
- Ongoing role, running from early fall workshops through open houses starting in late October
- Strong hosts will be first in line as we build our teams for next year
