Student Support Services: School Coordinator

Location: Chippewa Falls, WI, 54729

About the Role

You know the moment. A student who's been stuck for years decodes a word they couldn't read last month, or a math concept finally clicks. If you live for that moment, this job is for you.

McDonell Area Catholic Schools (MACS) is looking for an intervention leader to coordinate student support services in our school. You'll teach Tier 3 reading and math to students working well below grade level. You'll also lead the systems around them: progress monitoring, data conversations with teachers, intervention schedules, and support for our interventionist(s).

About MACS

MACS is a PreK-12 Catholic school system in Chippewa Falls. Our schools are St. Charles Early Childhood Center, St. Charles Borromeo Primary School, Holy Ghost Elementary School, Notre Dame Middle School, and McDonell Central Catholic High School.

We follow a Catholic liberal arts model that cares for the whole student: mind, heart, body, and soul. We believe every child is made in God's image and deserves a real chance to grow.

What You'll Do

Teach and Intervene

• Deliver direct Tier 3 literacy and math instruction to students working significantly below grade level
• Use benchmark data and quick probes to track progress and adjust instruction
• Help classroom teachers adapt lessons so students get what they need all day, not only in intervention

Run Student Support

• Manage student participation in Wisconsin's Special Needs Scholarship Program (SNSP), including enrollment, documentation, and compliance
• Coordinate and take part in ISP and IEP meetings and Title I services with our public school partners and your principal
• Keep families in the loop with quarterly progress updates

Lead and Build Systems

• Design school-wide intervention schedules and support structures
• Create simple ways to track progress toward ISP goals
• Lead data talks and student progress reviews with teachers
• Coach and train the school interventionist(s) you supervise
• Help plan professional development on literacy, math, and intervention
• Work with other SSS coordinators, principals, and the dean of academics to keep practices consistent across MACS

Who We're Looking For

Required

• Bachelor's degree
• At least three years teaching students in the field
• Training in reading and in math intervention
• Working knowledge of the IEP and ISP process
• Experience giving formal and informal assessments and using the data to plan instruction
• A collaborative style that earns teachers' trust
• Commitment to the mission of MACS

Preferred

• Master's degree, or Wisconsin licensure in special education or reading (316 or 317)
• Experience coaching or supervising other educators
• Practicing Catholic
