City Year Patch

A Day in the Life

When you serve with City Year New Hampshire every day is a chance to make a difference.  No two days will be exactly alike, but here is an example of what a typical day might be like with City Year New Hampshire:

7:15-8:15 am – Meet up with your teammates and fellow corps members at Timberland World Headquarters in Stratham, NH for Unity Rally. Unity Rally prepares corps members for a powerful day of service through PT (physical training), daily announcements, and occasional guest speakers.

8:45-9:15 am – Travel with team by van to school site.

9:30 am –  Prepare to lead small group of students in improving reading skills and comprehension.

10:35 am – Whole class support.

12:00 pm – Lunch

1:00 pm – Lead workshop or provide in class support for a grade level. If your team does not have a designated task to work on from 1:00 to 1:45, prepare for our after-school program and the rest of our week.

2:00 pm – 3:30 pm – Lead after-school program, After the Bell.

3:30 pm –  5:30 pm – Put room back together and return to Timberland Headquarters in Stratham, NH for the Team Meeting to discuss the day and review the schedule for tomorrow.

5:45 pm –  8:00 pm – Head back to the office for meetings, daily debriefing, next day planning or if you're lucky head home to get some rest!
