At The San Francisco School, we believe that leadership begins with curiosity, creativity, and a deep sense of community. Our Counselor-in-Training (CIT) Program invites middle school students to grow as leaders while supporting younger children in joyful, hands-on learning experiences.
This fall, CITs will have the opportunity to assist in a variety of enrichment activities—from leading cooperative sports games and facilitating art projects to helping organize community-building moments and supporting daily routines. CITs will learn the fundamentals of child development, teamwork, and communication, all while contributing to an inclusive and engaging after-school environment.
Rooted in our commitment to equity, agency, and compassion, this program helps young teens develop practical skills in collaboration, initiative, and responsibility. CITs also build confidence and experience that may lead to future opportunities as paid counselors in our programs once they are eligible.
Let your child discover what it means to lead with heart, curiosity, and purpose.
