The Registrar position at Empowerment Academy typically involves a full-time schedule from 7:45 am to 4:15 pm, Monday through Friday. Being available for occasional evening events and Saturday activities, like open houses and school fairs, is also part of the job to support community engagement.

It’s important to use a friendly and informative approach when engaging families during enrollment. Sharing resources, hosting open houses, and offering one-on-one consultations can help families feel more comfortable and informed about the process.

In a fast-paced environment, I prioritize tasks based on deadlines and urgency. Making lists, using organizational tools, and being adaptable to change are key to managing my workload effectively while ensuring critical tasks are completed on time.

Handling challenging situations with parents requires empathy and clear communication. I once helped a parent who was frustrated with the enrollment process by actively listening to their concerns, providing timely updates, and offering solutions that met their needs.

I have hands-on experience with student information systems such as Infinite Campus, where I managed student records, processed enrollments, and utilized the system to generate reports efficiently.

I am comfortable using various tools such as Google Docs for documentation, Microsoft Excel for data management, and graphic design software for creating visually appealing marketing materials.

In high-pressure situations, I focus on maintaining a calm and organized demeanor. I prioritize tasks, break them into manageable parts, and communicate with my team to delegate where possible, which allows for efficient handling of deadlines.

I am motivated by the impact I can have on student success and family satisfaction. Being part of a team that supports educational goals and helps children thrive is incredibly fulfilling for me.

I ensure effective communication by establishing clear lines of communication, being responsive to inquiries, and using multiple channels, such as emails, phone calls, and in-person meetings to keep everyone informed and engaged.

Empathy plays a significant role in the Registrar position as it helps build trust with families. Understanding their concerns and showing genuine care during the enrollment process promotes positive relationships and a sense of belonging within the school community.
