Who We Are

Knowledge Road is a special education staffing company that partners with schools to place strong, reliable educators — and actually supports them once they’re placed. Our goal is straightforward: help students with IEPs access grade-level learning and make real progress, with a team culture that respects teachers.

The Opportunity

We’re hiring a NYS-certified Special Education Teacher for a High School Integrated Co-Teaching (ICT) assignment supporting 11th and 12th grade students at a school in downtown Manhattan . This is a push-in / inclusion role across multiple classrooms, working in close partnership with general education teachers across core subjects.

You’ll support instruction in ELA, Math, History, and Science , helping students with IEPs succeed in rigorous, credit-bearing coursework.

What You’ll Do

• Co-teach and co-plan with general education teachers using the ICT model

• Push in to multiple classrooms to provide accommodations, scaffolds, and targeted support

• Work 1:1 and in small groups to reinforce skills, improve access, and build independence

• Implement IEPs with fidelity : accommodations, modifications, goal support, and progress tracking

• Help adjust assignments, assessments, and materials to meet diverse learning needs

• Communicate clearly with school staff and families as needed (professional, consistent, calm)

What We’re Looking For

• NYS certification required: Students with Disabilities (Grades 7–12)

• Bachelor’s or Master’s in Special Education

• Experience in ICT / inclusion / collaborative teaching strongly preferred

• Strong IEP knowledge (instructional + compliance)

• Organized, flexible, and able to manage a schedule across multiple classrooms

• Team-first mindset — you collaborate well and don’t do the lone-wolf thing

What You Get

• $55/hour + consistent bi-weekly pay

• W-2 or 1099 flexibility depending on your preference

• Long-term stability: renewable assignment year after year

• Ongoing support from Knowledge Road (real humans, not a ghosted inbox)
