School Social Worker | Full-Time | On-Site | $70,000-$90,000

Looking for a school-based social work role that'sdifferent from the traditional school environment? This could be the opportunity for you.

We're hiring a School Social Worker to support students in a unique high school program serving grades 9-12. This school takes a proactive, relationship-centered approach to student support, with a strong focus on rapport building, conflict mediation, family engagement, and helping students thrive without relying on traditional disciplinary practices.
  • Location: Washington, DC
  • Schedule: Monday-Friday, 8:00 AM-4:00 PM
  • Status: Full-Time, On-Site
  • Salary: $70,000-$90,000
What You'll Do:
  • Support approximately10 students on your caseload while building relationships with the broader student population
  • Provide proactive support around student behavior, social-emotional needs, and conflict
  • Facilitate and support conflict mediation and restorative conversations
  • Build strong relationships with students, families, and school staff
  • Lead family engagement efforts
  • Track student data and monitor progress
  • Collaborate with the school team to support students with emotional and behavioral needs
  • Provide support beyond required IEP service minutes
Why This Role Stands Out:
  • A modern school environment designed around the belief that environment drives behavior
  • Approximately 40-50 students in the program
  • Your own office space
  • Unique 12-month school calendar with three trimesters and a 6-weeks-on/1-week-off schedule
  • Opportunity to make a meaningful impact through proactive, student-centered support
Qualifications:
  • LICSW strongly preferred
  • School Services Personnel (SSP) credential required
  • LGSW candidates may be considered
  • Experience working with students with emotional/behavioral needs is highly valued
  • Strong relationship-building, communication, and conflict-resolution skills

If you're a licensed social worker looking for a high-impact school role where relationships come before punishment, we'd love to connect with you!
