Job Description

Job Description

Step into a dynamic contract role supporting students’ growth and development across a diverse K–12 population in the Houston area. This full-time opportunity centers on delivering school-based physical therapy services throughout a large district, with a caseload of 160 students—of which 50 receive direct services. The workload will be shared with a fellow PT, ensuring manageable responsibilities and collaborative support.

Leverage your expertise as a Physical Therapist—or consider applying if you are an experienced PTA with significant pediatric or school-based background. The position offers flexibility in your daily schedule, with start times typically at 8:00 AM or 7:30 AM, concluding by late afternoon. Utilize the district office as a home base, then travel to assigned campuses spanning the entire district.

What we’re seeking:

• Current and active TX Physical Therapy license
• Prior experience in schools or with pediatric populations (PTA applicants must have multiple years in school/pediatric settings)
• Proficient with documentation systems such as Frontline and SuccessEd
• Ability to travel between campuses as needed (driving required)
• Must be eligible for state-required fingerprinting and clear background screening
• Professionalism to work effectively in a collaborative, student-focused environment
• Willingness to confirm you’ve never worked for this district before, and able to complete required affidavits regarding termination history

Primary responsibilities:

• Provide direct and consultative physical therapy services to K–12 students
• Split caseload and collaborate with another PT
• Maintain timely, detailed documentation in electronic systems
• Develop, implement, and adjust individualized treatment plans
• Serve as a resource for school staff and families
• Efficiently manage your time while traveling between multiple schools

Bring your commitment to making a difference in students’ daily lives. If you have the required licensure and relevant experience—and are ready for a rewarding, district-wide assignment—submit your application today. Don’t miss this chance to empower the next generation and grow your expertise in an engaging, school-based setting!
