Academic and Learning Support Case Manager
Position Overview
Carondelet High School (About us) is seeking a full-time Academic and Learning Support (ALS) Case Manager for the 2026–2027 school year. The ALS Case Manager is a central figure in the school’s student support ecosystem, ensuring that students with academic and learning needs receive the coordinated, compassionate, and effective support they deserve.
With a caseload of approximately 50–75 students, the ALS Case Manager provides individualized guidance, facilitates access to resources, advocates for appropriate accommodations, and collaborates with teachers, families, and other professionals.
