What are the responsibilities and job description for the Intervention Specialist position at Lake and Peninsula School District?
JOB OPENING
Position Title: Intervention Specialist (Instructional Tutors)
Summary of the Job: Once hired, the District will provide round trip airfare from the closest major airport to Anchorage, where tutors will be met by district representatives for an induction and assistance with shopping and shipping. From Anchorage, the District will fly the tutors to their assigned school site for the majority of the spring semester. District housing will be provided, with the only expense to the tutors being their food and supplies. Tutors will be placed on the salary scale under Aide IV: E5, $25.32 per hour.
Once at the school site, tutors will meet with site administration and staff to review current interventions, MAPS data, diagnostic testing results, PEAKS data, and any other available information related to individual students and from the information formulate a school-wide plan to address the needs of each student. Tutors work from 8:00am-4:00pm with a half-hour unpaid lunch, and one 30 minute prep period. 30 minutes before or after school will be used for additional tutoring time, based on site scheduling and needs. This equates to a 37.5 hour work-week.
During their period of employment, tutors will participate in professional development provided by LPSD – essentially an extension of a teaching practicum in an inservice setting. During their tenure with the District, tutors will be supervised by the school principal or another district administrator with a Type B certificate. The administrator will use the same instrument completed by the tutor as a self-assessment and performance evaluation. The observation and evaluation process will result in formal, written feedback that the tutor can use as a reference when applying for work. It will also help LPSD select and offer permanent employment to the best-fit candidate(s).
