This role offers the chance to collaborate within a supportive team, using a fully-prepared schedule and detailed documentation on short- and long-term student goals.

- Experience in school-based OT environments; exposure to home health, healthcare, or teletherapy OT is a plus

- Ability to work with a diverse student population, tailoring interventions for a range of developmental needs
Job Responsibilities:
- Deliver individual and group OT sessions, typically 1–2 times per week for each student
- Focus on goals encompassing self-help skills (buttoning, zippering, hygiene), life skills, pre-vocational skills, handwriting, and fine motor development
- Monitor student progress, using established notes and documentation frameworks
- Collaborate with educators, families, and IEP teams to provide holistic student support
- Adjust interventions as needed to align with shifting caseloads or new student needs
You’ll find an organized, welcoming environment with established schedules and clear expectations, designed to help both students and staff thrive.
The contract runs through January 31, 2027, making this a fantastic opportunity to make a lasting impact on students’ growth and independence. If you are eager to bring creativity, compassion, and clinical expertise to a collaborative school setting, apply now to get started as soon as possible!
