Descriptive survey reveals intervention approaches and responsibilities of school-based occupational therapy practitioners, highlighting their roles.

Most school-based occupational therapy practitioners deliver direct intervention for fine motor skills in elementary settings, and consultative services in middle and high schools.
Participants reported that 86% provide feedback during required reports and meetings, although many wish for more time to support students and families.
Intervention approaches varied, with fine motor skills addressed by 98.6% in elementary and life skills by 56.5% in high school.
Factors affecting choices included education, years of experience, and caseload size, indicating the need for better understanding of practitioner contributions.
