The supportive environment helps enhance student participation, foster independence, and achieve individual educational goals.

Key Qualifications & Experience:

  • Valid Pennsylvania COTA license is required
  • Previous experience with school-based settings highly valued
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills
  • Ability to adapt therapy interventions for diverse ages and educational needs
  • Commitment to supporting a positive and inclusive learning environment

Primary Responsibilities:

  • Work in partnership with an onsite Occupational Therapist, who will provide supervision and mentorship

  • Contribute to the evaluation, planning, and documentation process as outlined by student IEPs
  • Engage collaboratively with teachers, staff, and families to help students maximize their functional abilities within the school setting
  • Maintain records and progress reports in compliance with district and regulatory standards

This full-time opportunity runs from late August 2026 through the end of May 2027, with a commitment of 35 hours per week. As you support the district’s OT program, you’ll enjoy the chance to broaden your experience while making a meaningful impact across varied educational levels.

If you are a driven Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant ready to help students thrive, we invite you to submit your Pennsylvania COTA license and an updated resume. Take the next step in your career and apply now—help shape success stories for students in the upcoming school year.
