Job Description

Discover an exciting opportunity to make a real impact in the lives of elementary school students as a Special Education Teacher in a dynamic and supportive setting. Several full-time contract positions are now open for dedicated educators looking to support either an ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) program or a therapeutic classroom, both designed to foster meaningful growth and development for K–5 learners.

You’ll step into a classroom environment that encourages collaboration, with strong multidisciplinary support from Speech, Social Work, Occupational Therapy, and Physical Therapy professionals. Each classroom also benefits from the assistance of three paraprofessionals, ensuring a low student-to-adult ratio and robust support system. You’ll join a team that values open communication and shares a commitment to student progress—no toileting or lifting duties required.

Desired Qualifications:

• Valid Michigan Special Education Certification (required)
• Experience working with ASD or behavioral/therapeutic student populations
• Ability to foster an inclusive, positive, and engaging learning environment
• Strong interpersonal and collaborative skills
• Passion for individualized instruction and student-centered approaches

Key Responsibilities:

• Deliver tailored instruction to elementary students within ASD or therapeutic programs
• Collaborate with paraprofessionals and multidisciplinary team members to implement individualized education plans (IEPs)
• Develop and adapt instructional materials and strategies to meet each student’s needs
• Foster a classroom culture of acceptance, safety, and growth
• Monitor student progress and document outcomes for ongoing program improvement

Benefits include weekly pay, 401(k) with employer contribution, and a comprehensive benefits package covering health, vision, and dental insurance.

If you’re ready to bring your expertise and compassion to a forward-thinking educational environment and help shape students’ futures, apply today to be considered for this rewarding special education role!
