Speech Language Pathologist – Temporary Full Time

Job Overview

As a Speech‑Language Pathologist , you’ll play a vital role in fostering communication success for students through a consultative approach.

Your expertise will guide interventions for a range of needs, including speech and language delays / disorders, swallowing and feeding concerns, cognitive‑communication challenges, and pre‑literacy / literacy development.

You will also conduct comprehensive assessments for new students applying to the program to determine eligibility and inform individualized support plans. This position includes maintaining accurate documentation, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards, and contributing to team‑based problem‑solving to promote student success.

What You’ll Do

• Assessment and progress monitoring by collaborating with classroom team, families / caregivers, and other interdisciplinary team members to determine speech & language needs of students
• Individualized instruction by reviewing and revising measures and / or goals
• Treatment planning and intervention through development of differentiated instruction strategies that support speech and language development
• Case management through discussing / reporting / documenting child strengths, achievements, needs and other noteworthy observations with interdisciplinary team and family / caregivers
• Collaboration to develop and implement consistent goals in areas of communication, social, emotional and behavioral development with team members and family / caregivers

About You

You thrive in a collaborative, dynamic environment where no two days are the same, bringing integrity, empathy, and a passion for making a difference. With strong communication skills, you build trust and foster teamwork while delivering results and maintaining service excellence. Your ability to plan, organize, and adapt ensures efficiency in achieving goals. Bonus points if you have experience supporting children facing unique challenges or from diverse cultural backgrounds, as this enhances your ability to connect and contribute effectively.
