Role Mission

Special Education Support Specialists are dedicated to facilitating data-driven instruction that leads to exceptional academic outcomes while fostering meaningful relationships with each scholar.

Through ongoing feedback and collaboration with a lead teacher, you will help drive student goals by supporting them individually, in small groups, or through facilitating activities that enhance their sensory, motor, life, and social-emotional skills.

Special Education Teachers at Rocky Mountain Prep partner with their Support Specialists to ensure all students are on track to meet our key objectives.

In this role, you will:

  • Assist students with significant needs in developing independence in daily living skills.
  • Instruct small and large groups in academics, sensory skills, arts, financial literacy, domestic skills, and recreational activities.
  • Supervise and support in various settings including classrooms, physical education classes, clinics, lunchrooms, playgrounds, and during transportation.
  • Monitor and maintain required documentation; oversee behavior; implement behavior intervention plans.
  • Assist with feeding and supervise meal times, including spoon-feeding and tube feeding as necessary.
  • Carry out occupational or physical therapy activities as directed; perform assigned medical tasks.

Qualifications

  • Proof of high school completion or GED.
  • Successful completion of a background check.
  • Eligibility to work in the United States.

Preferred:

  • Experience working with students with disabilities.
  • Background in working with elementary school students and diverse populations.
  • Training in Crisis Prevention Intervention (CPI) or Nonviolent Crisis Intervention (NCI).
