Job Description

Step into a dynamic school-based contract opportunity supporting students across two high schools and one elementary setting in a life skills program. This full-time position (40 hours per week) spans from September 8, 2026, through June 17, 2027, allowing you to make a meaningful impact throughout the academic year. Half your week will be dedicated to students at a campus serving those with special education needs, while the remainder will focus on social development support at another nearby school. With a caseload of approximately 33 students, your expertise will be vital in helping them thrive.

Preferred candidates have experience with feeding and swallowing (safe eating) and Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC), though training will be offered for those eager to learn these essential skills. You’ll work independently on-site but benefit from the support of a robust SLP team available virtually and through monthly meetings, as well as collaboration with special education teachers, paraprofessionals, and classroom assistants.

What You'll Bring:

• Current SLP licensure with CCC credentials and a background in school settings
• Strong collaboration and independent work skills
• Eagerness to support life skills, especially with feeding/swallowing and AAC (or willingness to gain new training)
• Adaptability to serve diverse student needs and mentor peers
• Commitment to a fully in-person position; no virtual or hybrid options available

What You'll Do:

• Deliver speech-language support tailored to life skills programming
• Maintain communication with educational teams
• Support student development both academically and socially
• Document progress and participate in case management

Here you’ll find a supportive environment, a tenured SLP team, and hands-on experience with varied student needs. Ready to take the next step in your career and make an impact this school year? Submit your application today to explore this rewarding school-based role!
