Little Keswick School is a private, therapeutic, residential school serving boys, ages 9-17 years old who have learning disabilities and emotional challenges. We are an award-winning program located in central Virginia, just a few miles east of Charlottesville.
Little Keswick has an international reputation and has been in continuous operation for the last 57 years. With the state-mandated closing of all Virginia Schools, Little Keswick has successfully transitioned to offering our services on-line until campus can be re-opened to students and staff. We are currently planning for our campus to re-open this summer and are interested in full and part-time staff who have experience working in the field.
The Residential Program seeks energetic, engaging applicants who have a passion for helping children experience personal growth. The Residential program offers students a setting to practice and learn interpersonal and life skills. Counselors are responsible for building therapeutic relationships, teaching Social Thinking © skills, planning engaging leisure activities, and supporting in life space counseling. The ideal applicant is organized, who can attend to details, enjoys being physically active, and can use inter-personal skills in supporting others.
