Questions

Do I need to be a teacher?

No. Teaching Assistants support an experienced instructor in the classroom. Directors and Resident Counselors focus on student life, safety and operations.

Can I work more than one Residency?

Yes. Many staff work several across the year, as long as the dates don't overlap. Tell us every season you're free when you apply.

Do I have to live on site?

Directors and Resident Counselors on residential Residencies live on site with students. Teaching Assistants, and staff on commuter Residencies, go home at the end of each day.

Is there a background check?

Yes. Every staff member completes a background check and our training before working with students.

I've worked for Summer Discovery before. Should I apply?

Please do. Mention it in your application, and we'll look at your history with us when we match you to a Residency.

Your next break could change someone's future.
