Job Description

Make a real impact supporting students in a dynamic elementary special education setting. This contract role calls for a dedicated Special Education Teacher skilled in delivering instruction across all academic areas, with both inclusion and pull-out models. You'll be working with a caseload of 15-18 students in elementary grades, focusing on implementing individualized education plans and collaborating with general education staff to meet student needs. This opportunity is full-time, Monday through Friday from 8:30am to 3:30pm. The role is designed for flexibility: while there's an option to split time between two nearby campuses (about 2.5 miles apart—with two days at one site and three at the other), candidates who prefer remaining on a single campus can be accommodated.
Qualifications:
Valid Special Education teaching certification. Experience with elementary special education caseloads, preferably in both inclusion and pull-out services. Proficiency in adapting and modifying curriculum across subject areas to support diverse learning needs. Strong communication and collaboration skills, working well with general education teachers, families, and related service providers. Comfortable with managing and prioritizing documentation and compliance related to special education services.
Responsibilities:
Deliver individualized and group instruction in all elementary subjects in inclusion and resource settings. Develop, implement, and monitor IEPs tailored to each student's goals. Track student progress and maintain accurate records for compliance and reporting. Foster a positive, inclusive environment that empowers all learners. Flexibly adapt to either split-campus or single-campus schedules, depending on preference. Interviews and hiring are happening immediately. Take the next step in your journey supporting young learners and apply now! Embrace a rewarding role where your expertise will truly matter in students' lives. #p31
