  • Strong classroom management and differentiation skills
  • Ability to collaborate effectively with paraprofessionals, general education teachers, and support staff
  • Commitment to fostering a supportive, inclusive learning environment

Role Responsibilities:

  • Plan and implement individualized education programs (IEPs)
  • Teach and support students in both self-contained and mainstream class settings
  • Develop effective behavioral interventions and instructional strategies
  • Coordinate with paraprofessionals to ensure seamless student support
  • Participate in parent meetings, progress reports, and multidisciplinary team discussions
