Behavior Therapist - School Based

Zen Educate
Lawrence, KS Full Time
POSTED ON 7/6/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 8/4/2026

Your experience in behavioral support transfers directly into special education classrooms.
Whether you’ve worked as a Behavior Technician, Behavioral Specialist, Behaviour Therapist, or Behavior Interventionist, the skills you use every day are exactly what SPED classrooms need. Building rapport, supporting individuals with complex needs, implementing behavior intervention plans, de-escalating challenging situations, and applying therapeutic or behavioral strategies are all highly transferable to school settings.
These paraprofessional roles in SPED Classrooms are a natural next step if you want to continue making a real impact, with predictable school-day hours, a structured environment, weekly pay, and W-2 employment. You’ll support students with a range of special education needs, including mild, moderate, and severe needs, while using the experience you’ve already built in a new and meaningful setting.
If you’re passionate about supporting students with special needs and want a role where your skills can make a daily difference, this could be your next step. Secure Your Classroom Role Before Summer Break Ends!
Please note: Schools are currently on summer break. However, we are actively recruiting right now for the upcoming school year starting in August 2026!
Joining our team early is a great way to complete your onboarding, showcase your skills, and secure your position before the fall rush. We are looking for paraprofessionals and classroom aides to support special education students. Now’s your chance to get set up for success and be ready to create strong bonds and make a lasting impact the moment doors open this August.
