Discover a rewarding opportunity working with students in a supportive school environment. This contract position is ideal for professionals eager to provide exceptional speech and language services to students in a self-contained and ASD-focused setting. With flexibility to create your own schedule - mornings are preferred but not required - you'll have the autonomy to structure your workweek to suit your life.
Desired Skills and Experience:
- Current or eligible license as an SLP-CCC, SLP-CFY, or SLPA with experience or strong interest in school-based speech services
- Background in working with self-contained classrooms and students with ASD is preferred
- Familiarity with language-based therapy approaches; assistive device experience not required
- Strong communication skills to collaborate effectively with teachers and families
- Compassion, patience, and adaptability in serving diverse student needs
Key Responsibilities:
- Provide direct speech and language therapy primarily for language disorders; caseload is mainly self-contained and ASD students
- Conduct assessments, develop IEP goals, and track student progress
- Deliver therapy in accordance with best practices and student needs - no device usage required
- Collaborate closely with special education teams to support tailored educational outcomes
- Maintain clear documentation and participate in relevant parent or staff meetings as needed
What Makes This Role Stand Out:
- Flexible, self-directed weekly schedule - mornings are preferred but scheduling is adaptable
- Compact caseload, allowing focused, high-quality sessions (only 8 hours per week)
- Welcoming and supportive school environment
- Open to Clinical Fellows seeking valuable school-based experience
If you are ready to make a meaningful impact and value autonomy in your role, consider applying for this engaging opportunity. Shape your schedule and support motivated students - submit your application now to take the next step in your school-based speech therapy career.
