• Conduct screenings and comprehensive evaluations to identify students requiring services
• Maintain accurate, timely records and contribute input to IEP meetings
• Collaborate closely with educational teams to support student participation and functional skills in the classroom
• Offer consultative support for teachers in adapting classroom materials and routines
