Job Summary

As a school para educator, you will support teachers and school administrators by working with students who require special instructional or behavioral assistance. Depending on the individual needs of each student, you will help them overcome physical, behavioral, or social limitations in order to be successful in the classroom and develop essential life skills.

Your students will vary in age from grades K-12, to be determined by the school district. You may be assigned an individual student requiring one-on-one support, or you may be asked to help as a classroom aide. Your students' challenges may range from mild to moderate to severe.

As you accompany your students throughout the school day, your responsibilities may range from helping with classwork to promoting the development of basic hygiene and self-care skills. You may be asked to participate with the student in any prescribed PT, OT, or SLP services. The level of intervention they require will be determined on a case-by-case basis, according to the parameters set forth in their individual education plans (IEP) or 504 plans.

We are looking for a versatile para educator who is willing to collaborate with a diverse group of students, educators, and administrators. Our ideal applicant is compassionate, steady under pressure, and capable of meeting the needs of students who require a significant level of physical and behavioral support.
