Use evidence-based techniques and therapeutic activities to support student engagement, participation, and progress in school-related tasks. 

  • Monitor and Document Progress: Maintain accurate documentation of therapy sessions, student responses, and outcomes. Communicate observations and changes to the supervising OT to help inform adjustments in intervention strategies. 

  • Collaborate with Teams: Work closely with teachers, paraprofessionals, and other school staff to support generalization of skills across settings. Participate in IEP meetings and parent conferences when requested, contributing insights on student performance and therapy progress. 

  • Maintain Professional Standards: Adhere to ethical and legal standards set by TABOT and school policies. Ensure safe, supportive, and student-centered practices during all service delivery. 

Your expertise and dedication will empower students to develop the skills needed to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
