The Fort Collins Friends Meeting is seeking a teacher for our younger Friends' First Day (Sunday) school. The children in this young Friends group are 2 to 12 years of age. The individual that we are seeking for this position will be energetic and fun, yet responsible and safe - and, will love being with children and helping them to grow spiritually.

The First Day School is held every Sunday from 10:00 - 11:00. This person will teach for three Sundays a month; which Sundays will be flexible. The responsibilities include: meeting with the Religious Education Committee two or three times a year for an organizational meeting, planning the "lesson and activities" for each Sunday, and engaging the children in the lesson's activities.

We have a dynamic teacher for the older youth, ages 13 - 18, and look forward to finding such an individual for our younger youth.
