Job Description

Preschool Teacher (Prep 360)

Autism 360 | Charlotte, NC (University area center)

Autism 360 was never built to be the biggest — it was built to be different.

Our focus has always been simple: deliver exceptional, individualized care that truly changes outcomes for children and families. That philosophy comes to life in Prep 360 , our education program that blends high-quality early childhood education with the science of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA).

We are currently seeking a Preschool Teacher to join our team and play a key role in shaping a learning environment designed with intention, support, and impact at its core.

Why This Role Stands Out

This is not a traditional preschool classroom.

As a Prep 360 teacher, you will lead a classroom where:

• Education and clinical support work hand-in-hand

• Each child receives individualized support, including a dedicated Behavior Technician

• A Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) partners with you to support learning and behavior strategies

• Small class sizes allow for meaningful, focused instruction

• Students (ages 3–6) are prepared for successful transitions into more traditional school settings

You are not working in isolation — you are part of a highly collaborative, interdisciplinary team, with the tools and support to do your best work.

What You’ll Do

• Lead a structured, engaging preschool classroom focused on early learning and development

• Implement a research-based curriculum while adapting to individual learner needs

• Create a safe, consistent, and nurturing classroom environment

• Establish routines that balance instruction, play, and developmental growth

• Collaborate closely with BCBAs, therapists, and support staff to align on student goals

• Communicate regularly with families regarding progress and development

• Take ownership of your classroom, treating it as your own

What We’re Looking For

• Experience in early childhood education, preschool teaching, or a related field

• A genuine interest in working with children with autism and diverse learning needs

• Strong classroom leadership and the ability to guide support staff effectively

• A proactive, organized, and solutions-oriented mindset

• Excellent communication skills and the ability to build trust with families and team members

• A patient, positive, and adaptable approach to teaching

Compensation & Benefits

• Salary range: $38,000 – $42,000, based on experience

• Consistent schedule: Monday–Friday, 7:00 AM – 4:00 PM

  • Includes dedicated lesson planning time and a paid daily lunch hour

• Generous paid time off (up to 21 days annually, including holidays)

• Comprehensive benefits: medical, dental, vision, and additional perks

• 401(k) plan

• Company-issued laptop and communication tools

• Access to nationally recognized curriculum resources

• Employee referral bonus program

A Collaborative, Supportive Environment

At Autism 360, you are part of a team.

You will work alongside:

• BCBAs

• Speech-Language Pathologists

• Occupational Therapists

• Behavior Technicians

Teachers collaborate regularly with clinical leadership to ensure each learner is supported both academically and behaviorally. Every student receives consistent 1:1 support, allowing you to focus on instruction while knowing your classroom is fully supported.

If you are looking for a role where you can lead, collaborate, and make a meaningful impact in a thoughtfully designed classroom — we encourage you to apply.
