• Manage a caseload of approximately 33 students, supporting their communication and feeding/swallowing needs
• Implement individualized education plans (IEPs) and contribute to student team meetings
• Provide therapeutic interventions tailored to enhance speech, language, and communication abilities
• Collaborate closely with special education staff, paraprofessionals, and other district personnel

Enjoy a structured school calendar, a supportive professional community, and the opportunity to make a difference in students’ day-to-day lives. No virtual or hybrid options are available for this in-person role.
