Can I still work at the mosque during my period?

Assalamu alaikum everyone, I recently got a job as a youth coordinator for the summer school program at our local masjid. It's for July and August, working with kids. I just remembered, though-if I'm on my period, am I not allowed to enter the mosque at all? Would that mean I can't do my job during those days? JazakAllah khair for any advice.

Girl, don't stress! I taught Quran summer school and just stayed in the library during my period. The imam even said it's allowed. May Allah make your work easy!

I work with kids at the masjid too, and on tough days I just stay in the activity room. No one blinks an eye. Don't overthink it, girl.

Honestly, in our mosque, the admin building is separate from the prayer area, so the women's group runs like normal during periods. You might just need to sit out salat.
