School Speech-Language Pathologist

School-Based Speech-Language Pathologist (CCC-SLP)

Sahuarita Speech Spot is seeking a compassionate, collaborative, and organized Speech-Language Pathologist to join our growing team for the 2026–2027 school year. This position primarily supports students within a local southern Arizona school district while working alongside a supportive team that includes both SLP and SLPA collaboration.

At Sahuarita Speech Spot, we value neurodiversity-affirming, relationship-based care and strive to create a supportive environment not only for students and families, but also for the clinicians we work with. We believe strong therapy happens when providers feel respected, supported, and able to practice with both clinical autonomy and teamwork.

This role includes a combination of direct therapy, evaluations, case management responsibilities, collaboration with school teams, and SLPA supervision.

Responsibilities

• Conduct speech-language evaluations using standardized assessments, informal measures, observations, and educationally relevant data

• Develop individualized treatment plans and IEP goals based on student needs

• Provide therapy services addressing articulation, language, social communication, fluency, voice, and other communication needs

• Collaborate with teachers, parents, special education staff, and multidisciplinary teams to support student success across settings

• Participate in IEP meetings, METs, and other school-based meetings as needed

• Monitor student progress and maintain accurate, timely documentation

• Supervise and collaborate with SLPAs in accordance with Arizona state guidelines

• Support a positive, respectful, and student-centered therapy environment

Qualifications

• Current Arizona licensure and CCC-SLP certification required

• School-based experience preferred, but not required

• Strong communication, organization, and time-management skills

• Ability to work independently while also collaborating effectively with a team

• Experience or interest in neurodiversity-affirming practices, autistic communication styles, and child-led therapy approaches is highly valued

• Comfortable balancing direct therapy, evaluations, documentation, and case management responsibilities within a school setting

Position Highlights

• Full-time school-year schedule

• Paid school holidays

• Competitive hourly W-2 pay

• Supportive team culture with collaboration and mentorship available

• Existing SLPA support structure in place

• Opportunities for flexibility and growth within the practice

We are looking for someone who is clinically thoughtful, adaptable, and genuinely enjoys working with children and families. Our goal is to build a sustainable and supportive environment where clinicians can do meaningful work without feeling like just another number.

We would love to connect with clinicians who are passionate about helping students grow while being part of a collaborative and caring team.
