School Occupational Therapist | Katy, Texas

Step into a dynamic school-based role supporting students across a range of ages, from early childhood through young adulthood (ages 3-21). This full-time, on-site contract opportunity starts August 11, 2026, and runs through May 26, 2027, providing essential occupational therapy services in a collaborative educational setting.

You’ll be the primary occupational therapist for a cluster of 6 to 7 schools within a designated zone, thoughtfully assigned to keep your daily commute manageable. A portion of your caseload is consult-only, with about 30-40 students receiving direct services on a rotating schedule. Rarely will students require weekly sessions; instead, you’ll rotate through intervals based on student needs. You’ll also complete evaluations, participate in ARD meetings, and handle documentation using school-based platforms and IEP logs.

Desired Qualifications:

• Current Texas OT license and clean state fingerprinting/background check
• Previous school or strong pediatric experience, with highly qualified COTAs encouraged to apply
• Comfortable supporting a diverse student population ages 3-21
• Familiarity with SHARES and Onward platforms a plus
• Strong organizational skills for managing rotating caseloads and documentation
• Must not be a former employee or have previous terminations from school districts (background affidavit required)
• Willingness to travel between assigned schools; district office may be used as a home base

Responsibilities:

• Provide direct and consultative occupational therapy services as outlined in student IEPs
• Conduct evaluations and contribute meaningfully during ARDs
• Maintain accurate records and logs per district requirements
• Serve as lead OT, independently managing all service delivery with no COTA assistants

Experience the satisfaction of making a real impact in students’ lives while benefiting from a set, daytime schedule (8-4 or 7:30-3:30). Ready to bring your expertise to a forward-thinking educational environment? Apply today and help support students’ success through your skills and dedication!
