Milton Hershey School (MHS) is a top-notch home and school where 2,000 pre-K through 12th grade students from disadvantaged backgrounds are provided an extra-ordinary cost-free career focused education.  This is made possible by the generosity of Milton and Catherine Hershey, who established the school in 1909 and ensured it was fully endowed.  Thanks to that foresight, the school has almost 12,000 graduates and is expanding to serve more students. 

MHS is hiring Flex Transitional Living Assistants (FTLA) to live with and supervise high school seniors in campus residence buildings in Hershey, PA.  FTLA’s mentor MHS seniors to ensure they develop the life skills necessary for success post-graduation – whether they are entering post-secondary education, the military, or the world of work. FTLA's prepare students for the challenges they’ll face by role-modeling life skills and teaching self-responsibility, goal setting, planning & prioritization, time management, personal finance, and interpersonal skills - including appropriate dating behavior and managing peer pressure.

Other responsibilities include creating and supervising evening & weekend recreational activities, taking students to Sunday chapel services, and collaborating with fellow staff members to continually evaluate and enhance the program.  Additionally, FTLA’s provide coverage in MHS’s students homes as needed.

This is a year-round position, working a schedule of 9 consecutive days, followed by 3 days off.   Compensation includes a minimum annual salary of $48,799 plus a benefits package.  Housing & utilities are provided.  Up to $2,800 in relocation assistance is available.
