The Providence School System is seeking dedicated and experienced OCCUPATIONAL THERAPISTS to support our mission of fostering meaningful partnerships between schools, families, community and partners. The coordinator will play a pivotal role in planning, implementing, and evaluating initiatives that enhance family and community engagement to improve student success and strengthen the educational experience in our school district.

In PPSD, the teachers and teacher assistants set high expectations for academic achievement, provide equal access to differentiated instruction, and endeavor to close the achievement and opportunity gap among historically marginalized subgroups within the schools.
