Are you passionate about making a difference in the lives of students with diverse learning needs? Amergis Educational Staffing is teaming up with schools across Bristol County to offer a unique pathway for individuals with a bachelor's degree and classroom experience to step into a teaching role under a waiver-an ideal opportunity for those working toward licensure in special education.

• Calm, adaptable, and collaborative

• Dedicated to inclusive education and student success

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's Degree (required)

• High School Diploma or equivalent (minimum requirement)

• CPR certification, TB test, and health clearance (as applicable)

• Must meet all federal, state, and local employment requirements
