FGC GATHERING HIGH SCHOOL STAFF APPLICATION

Thank you for your interest in serving on FGC High School Program staff!

Applications are reviewed by FGC staff and the High School Program Coordinators. Because of the complexities of determining program staffing based on registration numbers as they come in, we may not be able to notify you right away as to whether there is a staff position for you. We do attempt to send all applicants a status update with projected decision timeline within 1-2 weeks of receiving their application.

COVID and Infectious Illness

FGC continuously evaluates our COVID and infectious illness policy to align with our best understanding of community needs and current public health data. YAY Gathering participants will be required to test for COVID on arrival (and at other times if needed), and may be asked to mask when in a large group session or at the request of another participant. Anyone testing positive will be required to quarantine on campus if space is available, or to leave the event.

High School counselors must be willing to follow, explain, and model the COVID and Infectious Illness Policy.

I agree

Essay Questions

If you have served on HS Gathering Staff in the past year, feel free to be brief with your essay responses.

1. Please describe your philosophy of youth work. There is no right answer to this question and we are not looking for anything specific. Please interpret it as you will and answer as genuinely as possible.

2. Please describe your previous experience as a youth worker either with Quaker organizations or other programs.

3. Why do you feel called to the ministry of youth work? Why at FGC Gathering?

4. What are some adjustments you have made, or would expect to make, to your youth work as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic?

It is our intention to create a staff community that is built on trust, is spirit-led, open, and loving. We ask that you consider and respond to the following queries:

4a. How can you help build a nurturing, safe, and trusting community?

4b. When you are in community, what support do you need to give yourself? How do you support others? What helps you ask others for the support you need?

4c. What gifts would you bring to the process of creating such a staff community?
