Immediately Job Description Make an impact where it matters most. Summit High School is seeking a passionate, relationship-driven Day Treatment Teacher to join our specialized program designed to support students with academics, social-emotional, and mental health needs. This is not a traditional classroom role—it's an opportunity to change trajectories, build trust, and be part of a deeply collaborative and supportive team. About the Day Treatment Program Our Day Treatment program is a small, tight-knit learning environment that provides students with enhanced mental health services alongside individualized academic support. The classroom serves a limited number of students and is staffed by two teachers and a therapist , all actively involved throughout the day. Together, we create a space that feels less like a school program and more like a family —where students are known, supported, and valued. We work closely with a large interdisciplinary team that includes the school psychologist, principal, assistant principal, and director of special education services , ensuring students receive comprehensive, wraparound support. Instruction and intervention are highly individualized, with a strong emphasis on social-emotional learning, life skills, executive functioning, and IEP goal progress . This role relies heavily on authentic relationships . Success in Day Treatment comes from connection—meeting students where they are, celebrating growth, and helping them build the skills they need to succeed both in and out of school.
