About the Role
We are seeking dedicated Paraprofessionals to join our small school program, where you will work alongside Special Education teachers to provide direct support to students with intellectual and developmental challenges.

This is not a desk job; it is an active, hands-on role where you will make a direct impact on the lives of our students.
