The assignment runs from 8:00 AM to 3:30 PM daily, totaling 37.5 hours per week, with some flexibility. An on-site presence is needed, but a 4/1 hybrid model (four days on-site, one remote) may be considered.

• Familiarity with Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) processes preferred

What You’ll Do:

• Conduct psychoeducational assessments and provide expert consultation for staff and families
• Support behavioral interventions, crafting and monitoring FBA/BIP plans
• Collaborate closely with educational diagnosticians (no academic achievement testing required)
• Lend occasional support to social workers for student counseling
• Serve as a proactive member of student success teams

You’ll work in a dynamic, supportive district positioned just 45 minutes south of Washington, DC, making it a convenient location for professionals in the greater DC metro area.
