ASSISTANT TEACHERS
If you are 12 years or older and enjoy working with children, you are an excellent candidate for assistant teaching. Carousel provides the opportunity for students in the intermediate and senior schools to assistant teach a younger children's class. This is a great learning experience for our assistant teachers, counts as high school volunteer hours, and is a lot of fun! Assistant teachers gain valuable leadership skills that they can apply in any setting that involves working with children.

REQUIREMENTS OF ASSISTANT TEACHERS
Assistant teachers are required to attend an ASSISTANT TEACHER ORIENTATION held on Wednesday, September 4th from 4:30-5:30pm. New assistant teachers will be provided with an assistant teacher t-shirt. Anyone requiring a second t-shirt can purchase one for a cost of $15+HST. These T-Shirts are to be worn at all times when assistant teaching. A strong commitment is required. If you will be absent for a day of assisting, it will be your responsibility to find a replacement.
All assistant teachers participate as volunteers.
