BASE! Program Lead

About Wah Mei

Wah Mei School is the first Chinese American bilingual school to be established in San Francisco. Since our first class in 1974, our preschool program successfully promotes multiculturalism in developmental activities that emphasize both learning and playing for our participants. Our mission is to provide a safe and nurturing high quality Chinese-English bi / trilingual multicultural environment that promotes children’s development while building a supportive community for their families. Our programs now include Early Care & Education, Before and Afterschool, Weekend Chinese Classes, and Summer Programs at multiple sites.

About the role

Wah Mei School is seeking Program Leaders for its BASE! ExCEL program. We believe that a high-quality youth development program meets the needs of youth through academic support, multiculturalism, project-based curriculum, and social support through mentoring relationships. We create a community environment in which youth learn leadership by example, develop critical thinking skills, and treat each other with kindness and respect. The Program Leader will be responsible for implementing learning activities for elementary school-age children and carry out other tasks that support an engaging, highly enriched, fun and safe experience for children from diverse backgrounds. The Program Leader needs to lead with passion and intelligence, be a team player, and must model Wah Mei’s core values.

We have adapted our program to meet the health and safety guidelines provided by the City and County

of San Francisco during the COVID 19 pandemic. This program will require all staff, participants, and their

families to follow safety guidelines.
