Job Description


This opening is for seasoned paraprofessional (5+ years of experience working with ASD students, including those using AAC for speech generation) to work with a high school aged student who receives his education in a community-based environment in a 2 staff:1 student model. In this educational environment, a small core team embeds his curriculum into natural learning opportunities across settings to help mitigate a tendency toward splintered skills and to provide a dynamic learning experience. This position is temporary (approximately 10 weeks to cover maternity leave, however, may lead to other opportunities within the Bedford School District and beyond).

REQUIREMENTS:

ü DAYTIME WORKING HOURS 12-4 M-F, (no after 3pm applicants, please)

ü 5+ years working with older students with autism, including non-speaking students

ü Safety training preferred

ü Familiarity with Assistive Augmentative Communication (AAC)

ü Excellent communication skills

ü Willingness to implement program across settings in the community and in locations outside of the classroom

ü Dynamic implementation approaches that honor the unique abilities and needs of this student.


PLEASE NOTE: WE DO NOT USE THE ABA MODEL FOR TEACHING IN THIS ENVIRONMENT
