Job Description

Step into an enriching opportunity supporting students and educational staff in an assistive technology role for the upcoming school year. This contract position runs from August 12 through November 3 and is perfect for a Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) who enjoys dynamic, collaborative environments. Based primarily in Buffalo Grove, you’ll travel between seven schools within the district, serving both Buffalo Grove and Long Grove. The typical workday runs from 8:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., with a guaranteed 7.5-hour day (including lunch). Instead of managing a static caseload, your expertise will be focused on providing evaluations and consulting support for staff and students across a range of ages.

Key Qualifications:

  • Hold a valid Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) license (CCC or CFY accepted)
  • Previous experience in school-based or pediatric settings preferred
  • Strong knowledge of assistive technology and its classroom applications
  • Ability to provide effective staff support and conduct thorough student evaluations
  • Comfortable traveling between multiple school sites during the workweek
  • Excellent organizational, communication, and time management abilities

Responsibilities:

  • Assess student needs and recommend appropriate assistive technologies
  • Support and train staff in using speech and communication devices and tools
  • Complete comprehensive evaluations for students referred for assistive technology services
  • Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to develop strategies that enhance student access and participation
  • Provide ongoing consultation and troubleshooting for assistive technology tools

This role offers a competitive hourly rate starting at $45 or more depending on experience, along with a consistent work schedule and the rewarding chance to make a meaningful impact across several schools.

If you are committed to empowering students and educators through technology, we encourage you to apply today and help shape inclusive learning environments.
