If you're passionate about helping children succeed in their academic and everyday routines and you're looking for meaningful, impactful work that supports a strong work-life balance this opportunity is for you.

Why Choose a School-Based Role with PDS? As a school-based OT with PDS, you'll work directly within a K-12 educational setting, supporting students' participation and functional skills across the school day. You'll also benefit from:
  • A predictable weekday schedule that aligns with school hours
  • Summers off and built-in holidays
  • The ability to build lasting relationships with students, teachers, and school teams
  • Collaborative, interdisciplinary support through IEP teams and district resources
  • Optional - Compensation spread over 12 months, ensuring consistent pay throughout the year, even during school breaks
  • Professional Development & Career Growth opportunities to mentor, join leadership teams, or specialize in areas like bilingual services, AAC, or early childhood.
  • Built-In Support for New and Experienced Clinicians - Access to mentorship, ongoing CEUs, and experienced colleagues.
  • Schools are ideal for New Grads or seasoned OTs looking for a stable enriching environment
What We Offer:
  • Health, Dental & Vision Insurance with company contribution
  • Retirement Account with Company Matching
  • Unlimited CEUs
  • Annual Materials Stipend
  • Licensure Reimbursement
  • Supportive internal team of SLPs, OTs, PTs, and school-based professionals
Qualifications:
  • Master's or higher degree in Occupational Therapy (OTR/L) from an accredited program.
  • Current state Occupational Therapist license (or eligibility for licensure; PDS will assist if needed).
  • Previous experience in a pediatric, school, or related setting preferred (but new grads are welcome).
  • Strong interpersonal, communication and collaborative skills.
  • Commitment to student-centered practice, teamwork and professional growth.
Your Impact: As a PDS school-based OT, you will:
  • Deliver high-quality, individualized occupational therapy services that enable students to fully participate in school activities and students' occupations including academic, play/leisure, self-care, transition/work skills, and social participation.
  • Conduct evaluations, write reports, monitor progress and establish IEP goals/short-term objectives for students with accommodations, supports or services.
  • Collaborate with teachers, administrators, therapists, families and school teams to integrate OT strategies into natural school routines.
  • Consult with classroom staff to support adaptations/modifications of environment, curriculum and tasks to reduce barriers to student participation and functional performance.
  • Participate in IEP meetings, progress monitoring, and support positive school culture and student success.

Ready to Join Us? If you're an Occupational Therapist who is passionate about supporting students where they learn and grow every day and you're excited about the possibilities of a school-based role with PDS, this is the perfect opportunity. Apply now via our quick, mobile-friendly application.
