Outdoor Paraprofessional

Mount Prospect Academy seeks an Outdoor Paraprofessional to support at-risk and high-needs youth through outdoor and experiential learning. In this field-based role, you'll assist teachers and clinicians by leading small-group outdoor activities, reinforcing individualized behavior and treatment plans, and modeling positive social and life skills. You'll maintain safety, structure, and clear expectations during hikes, recreation, and campus programs, using trauma-informed and de-escalation strategies. As part of a collaborative, mission-driven team, you'll document student progress, join regular training and supervision, and help create meaningful growth opportunities for every student.
