Travel Speech Language Pathologist Assistant in Tacoma, WA

Job Description

Job Description

Traveling for your next school-based assignment offers more than just a job—it’s an opportunity to advance your skills while exploring vibrant destinations. As a School Speech-Language Pathology Assistant (SLPA) in the Tacoma, WA area, you’ll receive non-taxable stipends, travel support, and premium compensation, along with comprehensive healthcare benefits, 401(k) options, and a secure contract throughout the school year.

Nestled near the beautiful city of Tacoma, you’ll get to experience the Pacific Northwest’s scenic wonders, lively arts scene, and a community spirit that makes every day memorable. Relocating to Tacoma also puts you near both mountains and coastline, opening up endless possibilities for off-duty adventures, from hiking and exploring national parks to discovering local eateries and cultural attractions.

Professionally, working as an SLPA across elementary or middle school settings will broaden your clinical foundation. You’ll collaborate with experienced educators and therapists, adapt to various learning environments, and build relationships that bolster your resume. The support of a virtual supervising SLP fosters growth through mentorship while empowering your independence and adaptability.

Key Qualifications:

• Active or eligible for WA SLPA licensure
• Willingness to secure OSPI fingerprint clearance
• Prior middle school experience is a plus (for the middle school position)
• Effective communication and collaboration skills

Responsibilities:

• Deliver evidence-based speech-language services to elementary or middle school students
• Work closely with a remote supervising SLP for ongoing support
• Document sessions, progress, and compliance per school and regulatory guidelines
• Participate in IEP meetings and engage with school teams
• Contribute to a positive and effective learning environment

What Makes This Travel Assignment Stand Out:

• Non-taxable stipends for travel and housing
• Travel assistance for a smooth move
• Competitive rates and reliable weekly pay
• Extensive healthcare and retirement benefits
• Professional development and resume-building experiences
• Time to explore the Pacific Northwest

Embrace your next adventure: apply today to take your career—and your journey—to new heights in Tacoma!

Compensation for this position ranges from $26.88 to $46.88. 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.
