• Clinical Supervision: Provide oversight and supervision of a Speech-Language Pathology Assistant (SLPA) in accordance with New Hampshire state licensing board requirements.
• Targeted Support: Implement strategies to improve speech intelligibility (e.g., working on initial sound production) and functional vocabulary to reduce communication-based frustration.
• Progress Monitoring: Collect data on student goals and complete end-of-summer progress reports.
• Collaboration: Work with the special education team to support students who may have social-emotional needs related to their communication delays.
