Thank you for your interest in joining the staff of Belvoir Terrace.
Belvoir's staff is composed of professional teachers, graduate
students and artists-in-residence. Skilled undergraduates are also
included in the sports and music areas. Staff are selected for their teaching experience,
enthusiasm and interest in working with young people, and their
commitment to the Belvoir program. Belvoir is an exciting all arts
community, supportive of staff development, with many staff returning
to Belvoir from five to twenty years.
Staff at Belvoir teach in their area of expertise. Most music and
sports staff are also counselors, teaching fifteen to seventeen
hours/week, while spending time with their bunk group, as mentor
and positive role model. The art, dance, and theater staff teach
twenty-one hours/week and assist as cover counselors. All staff
interact with the campers in the dining room and throughout the
camp day. Staff at Belvoir have the opportunity to make a difference
in the lives of the Belvoir campers.
There
are many exciting reasons to work at Belvoir Terrace. The campers,
a diverse group of young women from locations around the world,
are motivated and excited about their individual schedules. Both
campers and staff are at camp for the full seven weeks. Staff have
the opportunity to learn from their peers by interacting within
their departments or by taking classes with the campers in other
arts and sports. The administration is skillful and supportive.
Staff schedules are designed for each individual so that programs
are comfortable and challenging. Returning staff supervise the teaching
areas and living units. Belvoir is within walking distance of downtown
Lenox, a cultural summer resort town. The Belvoir food is also wonderful.
Individuals
excited about learning and teaching in the arts or individual sports
will find Belvoir a supportive and exciting summer community. Belvoir
nurtures campers and staff in a safe and supportive environment.
We look forward to hearing from you.
