Job Description
Fulfill regular classroom duties of the lead teacher in O’Maley Middle School’s Language Skills program to
support students with language-based learning disabilities by providing individualized, intensive instruction
in areas like reading, writing, language comprehension and executive functioning.
The Language Skills Program supports students with complex cognitive profiles, learning delays and
significant language based disabilities. Students generally receive academic instruction in a small group
setting within a sub-separate special education classroom, and are included with their same-age peers to the
extent possible during the school day. Specialized instruction is highly individualized and may include
related services. A low student to staff ratio allows opportunities for student success academically, socially,
and emotionally.
