About the School

You'll work in a well-established K-12 private school that specializes in supporting students with Dyslexia and other language-based learning differences.

• Collaborative team environment that includes SLPs, occupational therapists, reading specialists, educators, and supportive administrators.
• Team-oriented culture - we help one another with make-up sessions and coverage when a therapist is out.
• School schedule, plus an optional summer program.
• Opportunity to expand your caseload by seeing clients at our Columbia therapy center if desired.
