  • Follow all universal precautions (e.g., blood-borne pathogens, CPR, First Aid, etc.) and all emergency procedures. Identify potential safety issues/hazards and report to the site safety committee and to your supervisor. Participate in the safety committee as directed.
  • Attend and participate in team/clinical meetings, supervision meetings, all-staff meetings, teacher meetings, annual planning and action teams as directed. Attend trainings designed to increase knowledge of current behavioral principles, policies, and procedures.
  • Assist with the supervision of students during school activities (e.g., field trips, bus areas, classroom areas, lunchroom, play areas, and in other assigned areas). Provide supervision and support to students during transportation to and from school in district-operated or school-operated vehicles upon request.
  • Travel to/from multiple site locations during the school day to support classrooms when requested by the Program Director.
  • Perform other duties and projects as assigned.
Qualifications:

  • Experience in Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports (PBIS) preferred.
  • Ability to think and act quickly and calmly in an emergency situation and make independent decisions.
  • Excellent oral and written communication, instruction, conflict resolution, multitasking, problem-solving, decision-making, and organizational skills.
  • Knowledge of relevant technology, including experience with computers, Microsoft Office Suite, database entry, and basic office equipment.
