- Assisting the classroom teachers by preparing materials, facilitating a learning center, and/or providing one-on-one teaching for individual students.
- Mentoring students to be confident in their academic and social abilities and to become productive citizens.
- Provide assistance to create a safe and secure environment for all students in other areas such as the media center, front office, and cafeteria.
- Assisting with planning and chaperoning field trips, after-school interest groups or sports, and in-school events.
