Jobbeschreibung

Occupational Therapist (OT) | K–6 | FMLA

Odessa, DE

Occupational Therapist (OT) | K–6 | Delaware

AnthroMed Education is seeking a full‑time Occupational Therapist (OT) to provide short‑term FMLA coverage for students in Kindergarten through 6th grade in a supportive school district from January 11, 2027 through February 9, 2027 in Odessa, DE.

This is a great opportunity for an OT who enjoys working in a collaborative school environment and supporting students with a variety of functional, sensory, and communication needs. The selected OT will support students across two nearby elementary school buildings, with an established schedule and student notes available to help ensure a smooth transition into the role.

Grade Levels: K–6th grade

Schedule: Full-time, 35 hours per week

Dates: January 11, 2027 – February 9, 2027

Caseload: Approximately 35 students

Buildings: Two nearby elementary school buildings

Salary: $60,000–$75,000 annualized

Hourly Equivalent: $48.70–$60.88/hour

Office Space: Shared

About the Opportunity

You’ll provide occupational therapy services to students across two elementary school buildings, helping students develop the functional skills they need to access and participate in their educational programs.

The caseload is blended, with exposure to students with a range of needs, including students who require more significant support. The OT should be comfortable addressing sensory needs, behaviors, proprioceptive input, AAC, and functional participation while collaborating with a multidisciplinary school team.

Because this is an FMLA coverage position, you’ll step into an established role with a schedule already in place, along with student notes and information to review prior to providing services.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

Opportunity to work with a diverse K–6 caseload

Access to strong AAC support within the district

District‑based contacts are available to help clinicians navigate clinical questions and challenges
