You will regularly monitor and document student progress, update goals as needed, and communicate results and strategies to teachers and families to support classroom generalization and home carryover.The SLP will participate in IEP meetings and collaborate closely with general education teachers, special education staff, school psychologists, administrators, and related service providers. You will help develop classroom strategies, provide in-service guidance when needed, and contribute to a positive, student-centered school climate. The school culture is team-oriented and supportive, providing an environment where travelers can integrate quickly and contribute meaningfully.This is an onsite-only position; teletherapy is not an option. The role requires strict adherence to State Department of Education requirements, including all necessary licensure, certification, and background checks. You will be expected to use electronic systems for documentation and IEP management, and to maintain timely, accurate records in accordance with district policies.This travel SLP assignment offers an excellent opportunity to broaden your school-based experience, work with a well-structured elementary caseload, and immerse yourself in a welcoming South Carolina community.
