Job Description

Are you passionate about making a difference in the lives of students? A rewarding contract opportunity is available for a licensed Physical Therapist to support K-12 learners throughout the academic year. This school-based position offers flexibility—either one full-time professional or multiple part-time clinicians can collaborate to fulfill needs across a diverse group of schools.

In this role, you will:

  • Deliver direct and indirect physical therapy services to students ranging from Pre-K through 12th grade.
  • Serve between two and three campuses per day, working closely with other therapists and support staff to cover approximately 35 schools (caseload is shared with another PT and a PTA).
  • Develop and implement individualized plans designed to help students achieve goals for mobility, access, and participation in the educational environment.
  • Maintain documentation in accordance with school district protocols, complete required forms, and participate in meetings as needed.
  • Travel between local campuses during the school day.

Qualifications:

  • Current valid Florida Physical Therapy license.
  • Previous experience in a school-based setting is highly preferred, though candidates without this experience will be considered.
  • Ability to manage a dynamic caseload and effectively collaborate with educators, parents, and clinical team members.
  • Strong communication and organizational skills.
  • Willingness to complete the district’s onboarding and credentialing process prior to start date.

Scheduling Details:

  • Flexible—either 1 full-time (Monday through Friday, 7:30am to 4:00pm with a 30-minute unpaid lunch) or 2-3 part-time Physical Therapists to cover 40 hours weekly.
  • This is an on-site position for the 2026-2027 school year, August 3rd to May 28th.
