Job Description

Discover the opportunity to make a lasting difference in students educational journeys as a paraprofessional, delivering vital support on an as-needed, per diem basis. In this flexible school-based role, your compassion and dedication will empower students to succeed academically, socially, and behaviorally, all while working alongside skilled educators in a structured environment. Assignments are available based on coverage needs, allowing you to choose shifts that fit your schedule and availability.

What You'll Contribute:

  • Provide individualized 1:1 and small-group support under the guidance of certified teachers and school personnel
  • Assist students in classroom participation, daily routines, and smooth transitions throughout the school day
  • Implement specific behavior support strategies and follow IEPs to ensure learners progress
  • Supervise, encourage, and assist with personal care and mobility needs as required
  • Help foster a positive, inclusive, and respectful learning community

Skills & Requirements:

  • High school diploma or GED
  • Minimum age of 18
  • Ability to meet school compliance standards, including current TB test and required clearances (or willingness to obtain)
  • Physical capability to stand, walk, and assist with lifting or movement
  • Experience in educational, behavioral health, or child care settings preferred
  • Background with special needs, autism, or behavioral interventions is a plus
  • Calm under pressure, compassionate, and a collaborative mindset
  • Certifications like CPI, PMT, or RBT are beneficial but not mandatory

Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Weekly pay to keep you financially secure
  • True scheduling flexibility: pick assignments that fit your life
  • Immediate support through our user-friendly app
  • Growth opportunities across school-based support roles
  • Experience the fulfillment of helping students thrive
