  • Facilitate participation in recreational and physical education activities
  • Assist with off-campus community-based learning experiences
  • Track student progress through data collection
  • Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to support educational and personal goals
  • Help with daily living activities, including hygiene and toileting as needed
  • Support individuals who may exhibit challenging behaviors

Benefits :

  • Paid instructional breaks (approx. 28 days annually)
  • Sick leave and vacation accruals
  • Tuition assistance / reimbursement for approved studies
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance
  • 403B retirement plan with employer contributions
  • Employee discount programs via Working Advantage
  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
  • Multiple pathways for career advancement
  • Requirements :

  • High school diploma or equivalent (required)
