Strong communication, organizational, and leadership skills.

Ability to work as part of a team and relate well to students and parents.

Bachelor’s degree in ministry or related field preferred (or equivalent experience). While a degree is helpful, we are more interested in you as a person and the experience and passion that you bring to the table.
