You’ll focus on a manageable caseload of approximately 15 special education students within a close-knit elementary building of 195 learners.

- Prior experience with school social work, ideally in elementary or special education settings
- Strong understanding of restorative practices and evidence-based interventions
- Exceptional communication, collaboration, and organizational skills
- Passion for serving both special education and general population students
Key Responsibilities:
- Provide direct social work services to a small caseload of special education students
- Collaborate with teachers, administrators, and families to create and implement student support plans
- Facilitate small intervention groups for at-risk students, focusing on social-emotional growth and academic success
- Champion restorative practices and help mediate student conflicts where needed
- Maintain diligent records, progress reports, and compliance documentation
- Advocate for student well-being and promote a positive, inclusive school climate
Enjoy a consistent weekday schedule: 8:35am to 3:30pm, perfect for balancing work and personal commitments. Your role will be critical in promoting resilience, belonging, and positive outcomes for both individual students and the broader school community.
