Substitute Food Service Assistant
The Environmental Charter School is looking for a highly dedicated Substitute Food Service Assistant for our school Monday - Friday 10:00 am - 2:00 pm.
Successful candidates must be progressive minded and embody a can-do spirit and work ethic.
OUR PHILOSOPHY AND MISSION
As the world changes and becomes increasingly more complex, global citizens will need to be equipped with skills that allow them to be flexible thinkers, creative problem solvers, and effective leaders.
ECS offers a program that develops students into critical thinkers, thoughtful innovators, and well-rounded scholars. We provide students the tools and educational foundation to become tomorrow’s global citizen, and we strive to teach students how their choices impact the world around them. By using environmental content as a lens for instruction, ECS provides students a context in which to explore ideas and observations, to practice inquiry and to actively problem solve. Throughout their academic career at ECS, students build core skills across all disciplines, and then actively apply these skills to support the impact of learning.
WORKING AT THE ENVIRONMENTAL CHARTER SCHOOL
The Environmental Charter School’s faculty and staff are passionate, talented, and uncompromising with a mission to make sure all students succeed at a high level. Every aspect of our organization and program is designed-and continually refined-to ensure that goal. Our work is student centered, constantly improving, and reflective. ECS’s progressive approach to education challenges faculty to take risks. We strongly value collaboration and recognize the power of systems thinking. Our high achievement scores, long waiting list (nearly 200 students in kindergarten alone!), and unique location in the city of Pittsburgh, serve as a model in environmentally focused education.
OVERVIEW
The Food Service Assistant supports the school’s food service program. The lunch and breakfast program at ECS is an extension of the environmentally-focused curriculum. By sourcing local farmers, using sustainable product, purchasing recycled or reusable trays and utensils, and patronizing local food service establishments, ECS has created a public school meal program unlike any other in Western Pennsylvania. The Environmental Charter School Lunch Program (ECSLP) provides a healthy, delicious, and sustainable (both agricultural and economic) meal within the guidelines of the National School Lunch Program.
