Bring your expertise in occupational therapy to a collaborative school environment serving elementary students ages 3 through 5th grade near Laurel, MD. This full-time, contract opportunity begins on August 10, 2026, and wraps up on June 8, 2027. With four openings available, you will provide onsite support across one or more school locations, with caseloads and specific sites discussed during the interview process.

This position is tailored for those who excel in providing direct services to children with a wide range of needs, including high-level autism, complex communication challenges, and behavioral differences. The district prides itself on its supportive network, including a strong mentor program and a team approach to behavior strategies. As an added benefit, you'll work in partnership with building administrators to set your own schedule, fostering true work-life balance.

Desired Background:

  • Active Maryland OT license (verified prior to start)
  • School-based occupational therapy experience preferred
  • Experience supporting students with significant autism, communication, or behavioral needs
  • Ability to collaborate with multidisciplinary teams and adapt to varied caseloads
  • Applications from strong COTAs will also be considered

Role Responsibilities:

  • Direct and consultative OT services following IEP requirements
  • Support students in developing functional, social-emotional, and academic life skills
  • Documentation and data collection for progress monitoring
  • Participation in IEP meetings and collaboration with school staff and families
  • Travel among school sites as needed

This is a great chance to make a significant difference in a dynamic school district, while enjoying autonomy in your daily scheduling and ample support from experienced mentors. If you’re passionate about empowering students and seeking a rewarding school-based contract for the 2026–2027 academic year, submit your application today!
