The growing demand for speech-language pathologists in school settings has led to an increased focus on understanding the factors that impact their overall job satisfaction. This text aims to address this need by examining the experiences and perspectives of school-based speech-language pathologists in the United States.

Drawing on data from a quantitative study conducted in schools across the country, the text highlights the critical role of effective and supportive educational leadership and administration in ensuring effective recruitment, retention, and job satisfaction amongst these much-needed professionals.

The text also emphasizes the growing responsibilities of speech-language pathologists in schools, including providing comprehensive speech and language therapy services to students with a wide range of communication disorders. However, recruitment and challenges in the sector can be remedied by greater understanding of how job satisfaction relates to speech-language pathologists' experiences and perspectives on pay, work, opportunities for promotion, and support from a supervisor.

This short text is aimed at researchers, scholars, and administrators in meeting the growing needs of children and students with speech and language difficulties in Early Childhood, Elementary, and Secondary education settings. The text will be particularly valuable for school leaders looking to support speech-language pathologists in their setting.
