Job Description

Step into a rewarding contract opportunity as a Physical Therapist supporting students from kindergarten through age 22. This full-time position is designed for skilled PTs with any level of experience—not just those with a school background.

Enjoy a dynamic role that allows you to make a difference for students, while learning the ropes of working in a school setting.

Key Qualifications:

  • Licensed Physical Therapist (PT) with any level of experience; open to new grads and seasoned professionals alike
  • Ability to adapt to diverse student needs across K-22 age range
  • Strong communication, collaboration, and organizational skills
  • Willingness to learn about IEP processes and school-based documentation (coaching and support provided)
  • Capable of working independently as well as in a team environment

Your Responsibilities:

  • Deliver physical therapy services to students as part of a collaborative educational team
  • Assess, plan, and implement treatments to support student mobility and participation in school activities
  • Maintain documentation and progress reports, with ample coaching offered for school requirements
  • Work closely with teachers, administration, and families to ensure student success
  • Participate in ongoing training and team meetings as needed

Why You'll Love This Opportunity:

  • Full-time, contract role—perfect for gaining specialized school-based experience
  • Supportive onboarding, including coaching on documentation and school protocols
  • Opportunity to grow professionally while making a direct impact in students’ lives
  • Embrace a welcoming school community eager to collaborate

If you’re a dedicated Physical Therapist ready to bring your skills to a new and meaningful setting, apply today and discover how rewarding a school-based assignment can be!

Compensation for this position ranges from $40.00 to $60.00. Eligible candidates may also receive healthcare benefits, housing, and meals/incidentals. Full details of our healthcare benefits plan can be found here. This posting is open for 60 days after the posting date.
