Position Description

Rocketship Special Education Teachers, known as Education Specialists (Mild/Moderate Support Needs), play a critical role in ensuring every student has access to an excellent, inclusive education. Specialists work closely with students, families, general education teachers, and paraprofessionals to provide academic, behavioral, and social-emotional support aligned to Individualized Education Programs (IEPs).

At Rocketship, we believe in the power of inclusive education. Our model ensures that students with disabilities learn alongside their peers in the general education setting whenever possible. Education Specialists co-teach, collaborate with general educators, and partner with paraprofessionals to uphold accommodations and modifications, creating classrooms where all students thrive together.

Education Specialists manage a caseload at a single school, providing small-group, push-in, and pull-out instruction while ensuring compliance with IDEA and state law. They are supported through weekly coaching from school leaders and additional coaching from a Special Education Program Specialist, ensuring strong professional growth and alignment to best practices.

Behavior support is also central to the role. Specialists partner with families and staff to implement Behavior Support Plans (BSPs) and Behavior Intervention Plans (BIPs), applying strategies such as Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) to create safe and supportive learning environments.

Education Specialists report to their Principal or an Assistant Principal.
