The Patrons Program hires recent college graduates to serve as Development/Marketing Fellows and right hand people to their Principals. Fellows are paired with one or two schools and get involved in all aspects of school life. The position offers a wide range of experiences. In a typical week, a School Fellow may lead a tour of the school for a new Advisory Board member, create a grant for a 7th and 8th grade calculator program in which he/she would lead the training efforts, speak with an architect regarding the new library, and work with the Principal on a Middle States accreditation proposal and design marketing plans and materials.
Typically our schools have only a Principal and an administrative assistant at the helm. Fellows provide great help to their Principals because they lead important projects and initiatives that the former are too busy to attempt. Characteristically self-starters, Fellows tend to work independently and get involved in almost every part of the school.
