• Work collaboratively with general and special education teams, guided by the district PT
• Travel efficiently between assigned school sites (roughly a mile apart) as needed

This role offers a preferred full-time schedule (five days per week), but motivated part-time candidates (three to four days weekly) are encouraged to apply. Hours generally run from 8:00 AM to 3:30 PM, providing flexibility and predictability for your planning needs.
