Adaptive Classroom Teacher

Solterra School exists to redefine education through holistic inclusion -- blending Universal Design for Learning, Social-Emotional Learning, and therapeutic supports in an eco-conscious environment that honors every learner’s unique rhythm of growth.

At Solterra School, we're creating a different kind of school—one that brings education, clinical support, and compassion together to help students with autism reach their fullest potential.

We're looking for an Adaptive Teacher to lead a classroom for students with significant cognitive, communication, behavioral, and sensory support needs—building a space where every student can access learning, communication, and independence at their own pace.

As our Adaptive Teacher, you'll lead a classroom built around each student's IEP, working hand-in-hand with our BCBA, RBTs, and Related Services team.

You'll:

• →Deliver individualized, functional instruction aligned to each student's IEP goals, adapting curriculum for significant cognitive, communication, sensory, and motor needs.

• →Build a structured, predictable classroom using visual supports, AAC, and hands-on, sensory-based learning.

• →Implement behavior support plans in close coordination with the BCBA and RBTs assigned to your classroom.

• →Embed functional life skills—self-care, routines, and independence—into every part of the school day.

• →Maintain a safe, organized classroom, and oversee the RBTs and paraprofessionals supporting it.

• →Collaborate daily with OT, SLP, and the behavior team to keep therapeutic strategies woven into instruction.

• →Keep IEP documentation and progress notes accurate, timely, and compliant.

• →Partner with families so strategies and routines carry over between school and home.

We're looking for someone who is:

• Patient, calm, and steady under pressure.

• Highly collaborative and comfortable co-teaching alongside BCBA and behavior staff.

• Creative and flexible in adapting instruction to each student's needs.

• Organized, with strong documentation habits.

• Someone who sees every student's growth, however it shows up, as success.

This is more than an Adaptive Teacher position—it's an opportunity to help build something meaningful from the ground up.

At Solterra, you'll be part of a team that values:

• 🌱 Student-centered care

• 🤝 True interdisciplinary collaboration

• 💡 Professional growth and learning

• ❤️ Dignity, respect, and inclusion

• 🚀 The opportunity to help shape a growing school

If you're looking for a role where you can help a student find their own path to growth—we'd love to meet you.
