DeForest Area School District is located just ten miles northeast of Madison in Dane County. We offer outstanding facilities and a competitive salary and benefits package. This is a school year position, working 8:00 am - 4:00 pm. The current location is DeForest Area Middle School serving grades 7 - 8. We are looking for a clear, expressive communicator fluent in American Sign Language (ASL) to assist with daily communication and support. This is not an official interpreting position - it’s ideal for a Children of Deaf Adults (CODA), an ASL student, or anyone with strong ASL skills looking for flexible, hands-on experience. In this role, you will bridge the communication gap, interpreting within both regular and special education environments while collaborating closely with teachers to support the student's unique learning needs. Key Responsibilities: Facilitate day-to-day conversation and non-technical communication between staff and students. Maintain a respectful, supportive, and dependable environment. The District does not discriminate in the employment of staff on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, sex (including gender status, change of sex, sexual orientation, or gender identity), pregnancy, creed or religion, genetic information, handicap or disability, marital status, citizenship status, veteran status, military service (as defined in 111.32, Wis. Stats.), ancestry, arrest record, conviction record, use or non-use of lawful products off the District’s premises during non-working hours, declining to attend an employer-sponsored meeting or to participate in any communication with the employer about religious matters or political matters, or any other legally protected category in its programs and activities, including employment opportunities. Notice of the District's policy on nondiscrimination and the identity of the School District's Compliance Officer(s) are published on the District's website, posted throughout the District, and included in the District's recruitment statements or general information publications.
