Job Description

Community Autism Services

School Psychologist   |  Aurora, CO

Full-Time  |  School-Based   |  $70,000 – $95,000

 

Why School Psychologists Choose CAS

At Community Autism Services, we know that great outcomes for students start with great support for clinicians. You won't be handed a caseload and left to figure it out - you'll have BCBAs, clinical leadership, and a collaborative team behind you every step of the way. We build environments where school psychologists thrive, and where your evaluations, consultation, and direct support have a measurable, lasting impact on students' lives.

WHAT SETS US APART

  • Embedded BCBA and clinical leadership support and collaborative consultation on every caseload
  • A culture that prioritizes data-driven decision-making without losing the human element
  • Real investment in your professional development — assessment, crisis intervention, bilingual assessment, and more
  • Meaningful, stable work in Aurora's growing school-based programs
  • A leadership team that has worked in the field and genuinely gets it


Role Overview

The School Psychologist is central to how CAS understands and supports every student on a caseload. You'll conduct comprehensive psychoeducational evaluations, determine eligibility, and guide IEP teams toward decisions that are not just compliant - but meaningful. You'll partner closely with SPED teachers, BCBAs, families, and multidisciplinary teams across a range of needs - from students on the autism spectrum to students with affective/emotional needs and those served through CoAlt/SSN programs.

Caseloads span Aurora's school-based programs at both the elementary and secondary level. We'll work with you to build an assignment that matches your experience and strengths.

 

What You'll Do

ASSESSMENT & EVALUATION

  • Conduct comprehensive psychoeducational evaluations to assess cognitive, academic, social-emotional, and behavioral functioning
  • Determine eligibility for special education and related services in accordance with IDEA and Colorado Department of Education (CDE) guidelines
  • Write clear, legally defensible evaluation reports within required timelines

IEP & ELIGIBILITY

  • Participate as a member of IEP and multidisciplinary teams, including annual reviews and triennial evaluations
  • Facilitate eligibility determinations in partnership with the multidisciplinary team
  • Develop and monitor progress toward academic, behavioral, communication, and functional goals

DIRECT STUDENT SUPPORT

  • Deliver individual and group counseling services aligned with IEP goals
  • Support crisis intervention and threat/risk assessment as needed
  • Promote positive mental health and safe, supportive learning environments

CONSULTATION & TEAM SUPPORT

  • Partner with BCBAs on the development, implementation, and monitoring of FBAs and Behavior Intervention Plans (BIPs)
  • Provide consultation to teachers, paraprofessionals, and school staff on behavior intervention strategies and accommodations
  • Participate in MTSS/RTI processes for students approaching or holding special education eligibility
  • Actively participate in school-based MTSS, problem-solving, and grade-level teams

DOCUMENTATION & COMPLIANCE

  • Maintain accurate, timely documentation in compliance with district, state, and federal requirements
  • Complete required documentation — evaluation reports, progress notes, prior written notices — accurately and on time
  • Ensure all evaluations and services meet CDE Special Services Provider (SSP) licensure standards

 

What We're Looking For

UNIVERSAL REQUIREMENTS

  • Specialist-level degree (Ed.S.) or Doctorate in School Psychology from an accredited program
  • Active Colorado CDE Special Services Provider (SSP) license — or eligibility to obtain
  • Passing score on the Praxis School Psychologist exam (5402/5403)
  • IEP evaluation and eligibility experience in a Colorado school district setting strongly preferred
  • Strong written and verbal communication with families, educators, and multidisciplinary team members
  • Must pass district fingerprinting and background check

 

Compensation & Benefits

Salary: $70,000 – $95,000 annually, based on experience, education level, and licensure

RANGE QUALIFIERS

  • $70,000–$78,000: Entry-level, 0–3 years of experience, Ed.S. degree with active or provisional SSP license
  • $78,000–$88,000: Mid-career, 4–8 years of school-based experience
  • $88,000–$95,000: Senior-level, 8+ years of experience, Doctorate, and/or bilingual (English/Spanish) proficiency

 

  • Sign-on bonus for candidates with active Colorado SSP licensure
  • Relocation stipend for candidates joining from 75+ miles away
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage
  • Paid school-year schedule following the APS academic calendar
  • Ongoing professional development: assessment, crisis intervention, bilingual assessment, and more
  • Career pathways into lead psychologist, clinical coordinator, and program specialist roles
