I’m a para in an autistic support room and in the 6 years I’ve been in the district, none of the PD has ever really been relevant. I would love to see more PD on autism, oppositional defiance, & techniques that actually work to help with behaviors.

what kind of professional development does your district provide you?

Just out of curiosity, are any Paraeducators (or teachers) working on transitional goals with their students? I work with the sped population and I just started working with high school student. I’m looking for outside resources to teach my students independent living skills. This is a new area for me and any guidance would be helpful!

Hi. So have you had covid cases and the admin doesn’t tell the staff who was exposed. We have 4. And I found out through coworkers and I’m high risk

I am in a self-contained cross category room. Grades 2-4. We have kiddos who need to be placed in therapeutic schools but those schools are understaffed due to Covid — their staff found other jobs during the shutdown—and so can’t take them. Several of our kids are huge. I have been slammed hard on the back, chased around the room to hit me, kicked, bitten, clawed, hair pulled. Is anyone else experiencing heightened behaviors?

How do we feel about sped aides constantly being on their phones when with students? It’s pervasive in our building and is driving me crazy. Yes there are down times but this is beyond that. Am I expecting too much as a fellow aide for everyone to be as engaged as I am?

I am in self-contained. Our students are never sent home even tho they are obviously ill. Only projectile vomiting sends a student home. So then we staff get sick because of our close contact, toileting, etc, and have to use our sick days and then run out of sick days. Anyone else experiencing this?

Our principal does not want we 1:1 aides at IEP meetings for our student. The mother of my student had to insist I be included. I was ignored at the meeting until the mother said, I’d like to hear from Sarah. Anyone else experience this?

We paras are in a cross-category self-contained autism/BD/LD/ED grades 2-4. We are hit, scratched, kicked. We are 6 adults and 10 kids. We work 8:30-3:30. Half hour lunch and no breaks. Is this typical? Short lunch and no breaks?

I need to ask a question of special Ed teachers. A student put her clothes in the toilet… Is it allowable to make that student put the wet clothes on?
