Bring your expertise as a Speech-Language Pathologist to help students thrive across two high schools and one elementary campus.

The assignment runs from September 8, 2026, through June 17, 2027, with a full-time schedule of 40 hours each week.

You’ll serve approximately 33 students, especially those enrolled in life skills programming.

• Speech-Language Pathology license, ASHA Certificate of Clinical Competence (CCC-SLP) required
• School-based SLP experience strongly preferred
• Background supporting special education and life skills students is advantageous
• Willingness to learn and grow in AAC and feeding/swallowing therapy

Responsibilities:

• Provide direct speech-language services to students with diverse needs
• Collaborate with on-site educational staff, support teams, and a virtual SLP cohort (monthly meetings)
• Carry out evaluations, develop IEPs, and implement individualized treatment plans
• Support safe eating programs and develop AAC strategies as needed
• Maintain accurate records and communicate progress with staff and families

Experience an engaging and supportive setting without remote or hybrid options—this role is purely in-person, giving you the chance to build meaningful, face-to-face relationships with students and colleagues. Take the next step in your career and make a lasting difference in the lives of students! Apply to bring your skills and passion to this impactful opportunity.
