Fort Worth ISD is looking to add two new positions for LSSPs for the 2010-2011 school year. These will be specialized positions. These LSSPs will work with students who receive Special Education services under the classification of “Emotional Disturbance,” or otherwise receive individualized services due to emotional, social or behavior concerns. They will team with the teachers and behavior interventionists in the “Behavior Improvement Classrooms” to provide direct and support services. Experience working with “ED” students is definitely desired.
These two positions have not yet been posted. Final approval has not been granted, but it is anticipated. Once approved, the positions should posted on the FWISD website around mid to late May. This advance notice is being offered because the posting and application process will be active for only two weeks. Please monitor the FWISD website for the posting. It will be different from the LSSP posting that is currently and continuously listed.
These positions are grant-funded for one year. Applicants should be aware that when the grant ends after one year, so do the positions. However, preference will be considered for those grant-funded LSSPs when hiring to fill any regular LSSP positions that become vacant for the 2011-2012 school year.
