Join Eagle Point School District 9 Inspiring Excellence in Education.

Eagle Point School District 9 (EPSD9) is seeking a dedicated and passionate Instructional Assistant to join the team at Eagle Rock Elementary. This is a critical position within our district, shaping the future of our students by fostering a love for literature, critical thinking, and effective communication.

About Eagle Point School District 9:
Located in the beautiful Rogue Valley of southern Oregon, EPSD9 serves students in Eagle Point, White City, and surrounding communities. Our district blends small‑town charm with access to urban amenities, offering an exceptional quality of life. We are committed to academic innovation, student-centered learning, and a supportive community, preparing students for success in college, careers, and lifelong learning.

About the Role:

Eagle Point School District 9 is seeking a compassionate, adaptable, and motivated Special Education Instructional Assistant to join our dedicated team. In this role, you will work closely with special education teachers, site administrators, and support staff to provide vital services and instruction to students with special needs. Your day-to-day responsibilities will include supporting students’ academic, social, emotional, and behavioral development while ensuring they have the tools and care necessary to succeed.

As a Special Education Instructional Assistant, you will assist in implementing Individualized Education Programs (IEPs), provide one-on-one or small group support, and assist students in their personal and physical care. You’ll play an integral role in creating a positive, inclusive learning environment and ensuring compliance with special education regulations.

We are searching for individuals who are patient, collaborative, and passionate about supporting students with disabilities. The ideal candidate is flexible, communicates effectively, and can positively engage with students, staff, and families. Candidates must have a high school diploma or equivalent, meet one of the required educational qualifications (such as postsecondary coursework, an associate’s degree, or passing district assessments), and be trained or willing to be trained in CPR, first aid, CPI restraint procedures, and special education best practices.

Prior experience supporting students with special needs is preferred, but most importantly, we are looking for someone committed to fostering an environment where all students can thrive. Bilingual applicants in Spanish are encouraged to apply.

EPSD9 is more than just a workplace—it’s a community. Nestled in the breathtaking Rogue Valley, our district offers a stunning natural setting with year‑round outdoor recreation, from hiking and rafting to skiing and fishing. A welcoming and affordable community with access to Medford, Ashland, and top‑tier cultural and dining experiences. A district that values innovation, collaboration, and student success in every decision we make.
