None!

I work as a special ed in a Title I school. We give our coordinator a list, and we get the basic supplies like pencils, folders, and envelopes. I do purchase a lot of things for my classroom.

$0.00

None! But my school secretary is nice and helps me out. I get 100 from the special ed office though, so I should count that.

If we need it, we put in an order and we get it. When I worked in Florida we got $200, of which $100 had to be spent at the district supply house for things like copy paper, erasers, pencils, dry erase markers, and general office supplies. We had to supply our own copy paper (bought from our budget) to make copies. Where I presently work, we have drawers filled with office supplies, plenty of paper in the copiers and really no limits on the copies we make unless we abuse it.

The older I get and the more I think about raising my own children, I keep thinking how can parents frame religious duties like fasting as something to look forward to.

I love my job in special education, the job may bring quite a bit of stress and exhaustion but nothing compares to the stress of the related service team. OT, PT, speech, BCBA, social worker, etc etc is really what’s killing me this year. It is 23 days into the school year and the team members all make different plans and as a result, nothing is being accomplished. And if paraprofessionals follow ie what OT says but not PT, it cause so much unnecessary conflict!

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.
