Original job description

Educational Sign Language Interpreter (Part-Time)

Support a Kindergarten Learner at Mannville School

Buffalo Trail Public Schools is committed to maximizing student learning in a safe and caring environment supported by a highly effective team.

Buffalo Trail Public Schools is seeking a qualified Educational Sign Language Interpreter to support a learner enrolled in Kindergarten at Mannville School during the 2026–2027 school year.

This is a unique opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the educational journey of a young learner while working as part of a collaborative and caring school community. The successful candidate will facilitate communication, promote inclusion, and support student success by providing professional interpreting services within the school environment.

The primary function of the interpreter is to interpret between people who do not share a common language, such as the deaf and hard of hearing student(s) and their hearing peers, classroom teachers, parents, school staff and administration in the classroom, as well as school activities such as assemblies, field trips, teams, clubs and other educational experiences.

Buffalo Trail Public Schools recognizes that qualified Educational Sign Language Interpreters may be interested in either an employment or an independent contractor arrangement. The Division is open to considering either option, subject to the successful candidate's circumstances and applicable operational and legal requirements.

This position is anticipated to be part-time during the 2026–2027 school year. Subject to student needs, funding, and operational requirements, there may be an opportunity for the role to expand to a full-time position during the 2027–2028 school year.

Hours: Based on the Kindergarten instructional schedule (Full days - approximately 6.75 hours/day) - Tue./Thurs. until November, then Tues./Thurs. and Fridays from Dec. 1 - June 11).

Qualifications

The successful candidate will demonstrate:

The ability to establish and maintain effective working relationships and collaborate as a member of an educational team.
Strong interpersonal, organizational, and communication skills.
The ability to establish trust and rapport with students, families, and school staff.

A demonstrated commitment to ongoing professional development specific to interpreting.
A minimum of one year of interpreting experience is preferred.
Active membership with the Canadian Association of Sign Language Interpreters (CASLI) and the applicable provincial affiliate is considered an asset.
