Sped classes and teachers are hiding in a corner of the school. Gen ed teachers only see sped dept at meetings.

Absolutely. I have tried everything, but there is ill-will that is residual from last year when I was not there. It's very childish.

When I was at a different school, the gen ed teachers LOVED me. I think it's because I helped intervene in areas they did not see growth in, and they did not have the time or resources to fully provide the intensive intervention needed. I also provided them with resources for their classrooms and was very open with them about why it was an evidence based practice without being condescending.

The first school I was in 5 years ago, the sped department was well respected and appreciated. I’ve been to a new district since then in elementary and middle and they put us off by ourselves, in the dungeon I call it, and there’s definitely a less than viewpoint. It’s not like that everywhere, but it’s a problem in some areas.

I have a principal with ZERO sped experience or knowledge observing and rating me. I got all distinguished last year from my AP. He gave me all basics & 2 unsat. He’s told us to not worry about goals

I keep being told what I have to do, but no one will show me how to do it. Be very careful how you word IEP’s without being given. The wording. I have been here 2 years as an intern. Now, with 3 weeks to go, I find out the name of the support person? I was never given training and my intern support person never met with me. Not even once! I’m not being hired back because I don’t know how to do what I was never trained on.

High school special class (self-contained) teachers: What do you use for planning? I’ve always been an inclusive teacher, so I followed the plan book of my co-teacher.

The 11th grade classes I can very much do whatever I (or the student) want/need…there isn’t a set curriculum

I feel like I'm at my wits end. I teach self-contained classes and according to the ISBE website my classes shouldn't be more than 8 students unless I have an aide - then it can be 10. I have no aide and most of my classes are around 14 kids. Some with behavior plans that are only out of our behavior room setting for my class... Is anybody else out there going through illegal class sizes for self-contained? How are you dealing? Maybe a vent session is in order.
