Track and document scholar progress and intervention data, and communicate updates clearly with mentors and administrators. Collaborate with mentors, special education staff, and related service providers as part of a multi-tiered system of support (MTSS) addressing varying levels of scholar need. Assist in reviewing scholar performance data with scholar support team to help identify whether interventions are working and where adjustments may be needed. Skills Experience or strong interest in working with scholars with disabilities, academic gaps, or behavioral support needs, ideally at the secondary (middle/high school) level. Familiarity with assessment-driven instruction and data-informed intervention approaches. Comfort using digital tools (LMS or similar platforms) to track progress and document interventions.
