Shape Little Lives, Spark Big Futures!

Early Childhood Special Education Teacher at Denver Public Schools

Do you believe the tiniest learners deserve the biggest opportunities ? Are you fueled by the joy of watching a 3-year-old conquer their first puzzle, master a new word, or beam with pride at their own success? If so, your next adventure starts here!

Our Model 1 Early Childhood Special Education classrooms are vibrant, inclusive spaces where children ages 3–5 with diverse abilities explore, play, and thrive. You’ll lead a classroom with the support of two incredible paraprofessionals, turning every moment—storytime, snack time, and circle time—into a learning opportunity.

Why You’ll Love Being at Denver Public Schools

Competitive pay & perks: Teacher salary plus our ProComp Incentive Plan

Time for life: Paid time off to recharge and refresh

Wellness matters: Health benefits to keep you and your family thriving

Secure your future: PERA retirement plan

A culture of fun and purpose: We believe in equity, collaboration, and celebrating wins—big and small!

What You’ll Do

As an ECE SPED Teacher , every day is a chance to make a lifelong impact. You’ll:

  • Create magical learning moments: Develop and teach individualized lessons for your little learners, meeting each child where they are.
  • Champion growth & confidence: Use formal and informal assessments to guide instruction and celebrate every milestone.
  • Build a joyful, structured environment: Encourage positive behaviors, model social skills, and keep the classroom safe and organized.
  • Support the whole child: From reading to routine care (yes, sometimes that means helping with snacks or diapering), you’ll ensure every child feels safe and supported.
  • Team up for success: Collaborate with families, paraprofessionals, and support staff to create a community where every child can shine.

What You’ll Bring

  • Bachelor’s degree in Education (or related field) required; Master’s preferred for select roles
  • Valid Colorado Teaching License (or CDE application receipt)
  • Passion for early childhood & inclusive education —bonus if you have experience with diverse learners
  • Commitment to equity: You believe every child deserves to be seen, heard, and celebrated
  • Colorado-based (this is a local adventure!)

At Denver Public Schools, your work will change lives —one giggle, one breakthrough, and one joyful discovery at a time.
