Job Description

Special Education Teacher – Mild/Moderate (Resource / SDC)

About Us: A Different Kind of Educational Partner

At e&e Educational Partners, we do things differently. Led by a veteran of special education, we walked away from the high-volume corporate agency model that treats passionate educators like numbers.

We operate on a retention-first philosophy. This means we focus entirely on long-term culture fit, classroom continuity, and ensuring you feel supported, valued, and empowered to make a real difference.

We are currently seeking a compassionate, dedicated Special Education Teacher specializing in Mild/Moderate disabilities for an elementary classroom placement within a thriving public school community in San Ramon.

• IEP Management: Lead the complete IEP process—writing compliant goals, tracking progress, collecting data, and facilitating annual multidisciplinary team meetings in accordance with CDE guidelines.

• Team Leadership: Direct and guide classroom paraprofessionals/instructional aides in executing individualized academic and behavioral support plans.

• Multidisciplinary Collaboration: Partner closely with general education teachers, Speech-Language Pathologists, Occupational Therapists, School Psychologists, and parents to ensure access to the Least Restrictive Environment (LRE).

Qualifications & Requirements

• Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Special Education or a related field.

• Licensure: Active California Education Specialist Instruction Credential – Mild/Moderate (or Extensive Support Needs with relevant experience).

• Authorizations: Valid English Learner (EL) authorization (CLAD/CTEL) and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) authorization required.

• Clearance: Ability to clear standard California Department of Education (CDE) background checks, Livescan fingerprinting, and TB testing.

• Experience: Strong foundational knowledge of evidence-based academic strategies, progress monitoring, and experience conducting IEP meetings within public school settings.

What We Offer

• Competitive, guaranteed hourly pay structure

• Health & Wellness: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance benefits

• Financial Security: Paid Time Off (PTO) plus a 4% 401(k) company match

• Supportive Environment: Direct access to experienced special education leadership throughout your placement
