Program Specialist For The Base Program

The Program Specialist for the BASE Program supports the daily operations and activities of this short-term, intensive behavior redirection program for elementary students (K3) who require differentiated social-emotional and academic supports to achieve success and transition back to their home schools. The specialist works collaboratively with teachers, school leaders, families, and community partners to ensure high-quality instruction, positive behavior supports, and consistent implementation of intervention strategies. This role monitors student progress, coordinates support services, and promotes alignment with the Virginia Standards of Learning (SOL), accreditation requirements, and the NNPS Strategic Plan. The Program Specialist also provides coaching and guidance to staff, facilitates communication across schools and families, and assists with planning and transitions to ensure students receive safe, structured, and effective learning experiences that foster both academic and behavioral growth.

The Program Specialist must possess a Master's Degree and a Virginia Postgraduate Professional License or be eligible for Virginia licensure. A minimum of three years of successful full-time teaching experience at the elementary level is required, with experience in alternative education, behavior intervention, or a related leadership or support role preferred. An endorsement in Administration and Supervision PK12 is preferred but not required. The specialist must successfully complete Crisis Prevention Institute (CPI) training, including restraint certification, and demonstrate the ability to work effectively with students from diverse behavioral, academic, socioeconomic, cultural, and ethnic backgrounds. Strong skills in collaboration, coaching, and building positive relationships with students, families, staff, and community partners are essential.
