Job Description

Job Description

Step into a specialized contract opportunity serving pre-K through 8th grade students as a School Psychologist. The district office-based role centers on evaluation-focused responsibilities, making it ideal for professionals who enjoy assessment and collaborative meetings without the daily demands of direct student or staff support. With a manageable evaluation caseload—last year’s count resting at 63 and 17 Early Intervention transitions—you’ll provide crucial insight to maximize student success in an engaging, supportive setting.

Key Qualifications:

• Hold an Illinois Professional Educator License (PEL) with a School Psychologist endorsement—pending status accepted for travel professionals.
• Prior experience in school psychology, running domain meetings, and overseeing evaluation processes.
• Familiarity with early intervention transitions and multistage student support systems (MTSS).
• Comfortable working primarily with evaluation-focused duties housed at a district office.
• Strong communication, organization, and report-writing skills.

Primary Responsibilities:

• Lead domain meetings and coordinate comprehensive student evaluations.
• Oversee the Early Intervention transition process, including conducting Transdisciplinary Play-Based Assessments (TPBA).
• Attend MTSS referral meetings for individual student planning as needed.
• Maintain accurate records, generate clear reports, and liaise with multidisciplinary teams on evaluation outcomes.
• Remain current on assessment best practices and student services compliance guidelines.

This assignment is scheduled to begin as soon as possible, continuing through June 19, 2027, with a standard schedule of 7:45 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.

If you are passionate about impactful evaluation work and ready to make a difference in a supportive office-based environment, don’t miss this rewarding contract opportunity. Apply today to take your expertise where it’s needed most!

Compensation for this position ranges from $41.00 to $61.00. Eligible candidates may also receive healthcare benefits, housing, and meals/incidentals. Full details of our healthcare benefits plan can be found here. This posting is open for 60 days after the posting date.
