Looking for a school-based social work role that’s different from the traditional school environment? This could be the opportunity for you.

We’re hiring a School Social Worker to support students in a unique high school program serving grades 9–12.

• Facilitate and support conflict mediation and restorative conversations
• Build strong relationships with students, families, and school staff
• Lead family engagement efforts
• Track student data and monitor progress
• Collaborate with the school team to support students with emotional and behavioral needs
• Provide support beyond required IEP service minutes

Why This Role Stands Out:

• A modern school environment designed around the belief that environment drives behavior
• Approximately 40–50 students in the program
• Your own office space
• Unique 12-month school calendar with three trimesters and a 6-weeks-on/1-week-off schedule
• Opportunity to make a meaningful impact through proactive, student-centered support

Qualifications:
