GO Fellow Lead @ Stamford Public Schools

GO Tutor Corps • Stamford, CT

14d • Onsite

About The Position

The AmeriCorps Fellow Lead serves with the GO Tutor Corps at Stamford Public Schools for the 2026–2027 academic year. The service term begins in November 2026 or January 2027 and ends June 25, 2027. The role combines high-dosage tutoring and student mentorship with coaching and support for other Fellows, and direct support to school leadership. Fellow Leads continue tutoring and mentoring students, with 40% of the school day aligned to tutor responsibilities at AITE, specifically in the integrated Math 3 curriculum.

GO Tutors work with consistent small groups of students to improve achievement in Math and English Language Arts (ELA). They receive lesson materials in advance and prepare for each lesson. They also mentor students by building authentic, healthy relationships, supporting social and emotional development, and helping students set goals for the future.

Fellow Leads track Fellow and student performance, participate in weekly meetings and check-ins, and collaborate with school and district program staff and selected GO Tutor Corps team members. They help uphold program culture, connect school and district leadership with Fellows, support onboarding, advocate for Fellows’ needs, and contribute to tutorial curriculum planning and tracking. They coach first-year Fellows through observations, feedback, check-ins, modeling effective instruction and healthy student relationships, and supporting family engagement.

Professional duties also include organizing or adapting instructional materials, providing extra academic and in-class support, being present in hallways before and after school and during transitions, making parent calls about student performance and behavior in tutorial, and supporting after-school clubs, Saturday school, or other enrichment opportunities.

Members must complete required service hours and the entire term through June 25, 2027, even if they reach their required hours earlier. They must also meet program requirements for paperwork, assignments, surveys, service records, National Days of Service projects, My AmeriCorps Portal enrollment and exit, and return of program equipment and housing in good standing. A living allowance is available. Stipends are paid at the end of a successful year: the November 2026 start date provides $4,000 total, while the January 2027 start date provides $2,000 total, paid in March and June 2027 installments as specified in the posting.
