Are you skilled with your hands, comfortable around shop tools, and passionate about mentoring the next generation? Pottstown High School is seeking a reliable, adaptable, and patient CTE Classroom Instructional Aide to support hands-on learning across our Career and Technical Education programs.
In this dynamic role, you won't be tied to a single classroom. You will rotate through our trade programs providing crucial instructional support, safety oversight, and guidance. If you thrive in active environments and want to make a direct, positive impact on Pottstown youth, this is the position for you.

• Safety & Tool Oversight: Demonstrate, monitor, and enforce shop safety protocols. Ensure students use power tools, hand tools, machinery, and commercial kitchen equipment correctly.
• Student Mentorship: Work one-on-one or in small groups with students to reinforce practical skills, troubleshoot projects, and build career confidence.
• Classroom Operations: Help set up tools, raw materials, and equipment for daily lab activities, and assist with shop cleanup and inventory maintenance.
• Behavioral Support: Foster a positive, structured, and patient environment, helping manage classroom dynamics with empathy, consistency, and respect.
Qualifications & Experience
Required:
• Hands-On Technical Savvy: Demonstrated experience and high comfort level operating power tools, shop equipment, and trade machinery (construction, mechanical, or general trade background preferred).
• Youth Experience: Proven track record of successfully working with, mentoring, or guiding high-school-aged youth from diverse and economically disadvantaged backgrounds.
• Education: High school diploma or GED equivalent (Associate degree or trade certification is a plus). Related industry certifications desirable.
• Clearances: Ability to obtain required PA State clearances (PA Criminal History, Child Abuse Clearance, and FBI Fingerprinting).
Key Attributes for Success:
• Exceptional Patience: The ability to stay calm, encouraging, and approachable when guiding teens through complex tasks or supporting students facing external stressors.
• Adaptability: Comfortable transitioning between different trade environments and learning the routines of various instructors.
• Relatability & Empathy: Strong communication skills to build trust, mutual respect, and rapport with Pottstown High School students.
Perks & Schedule
• Schedule: Consistent daily hours (7:20 AM - 2:50 PM), keeping your evenings completely free.
• Built-In Time Off: Enjoy all Pottstown School District calendar holidays, seasonal, and summer breaks.
• Community Impact: Help equip local Pottstown students with real-world, industry-ready skills that open doors to post-secondary success.
