Institute day starts Monday. Have been sent numerous emails regarding back to school but not a single one directed towards aides and our positions. Many of us are one on one in intensive sped rooms. Many of us take are jobs very seriously and feel this is such an insult. How can we prepare? Is this really a norm?

Contact whoever is organizing the institute and ask which training you should attend and if there will be training specifically for aide's because it is not listed in the schedule. It doesn't hurt to ask. They might assume incorrectly you would know to attend any special Ed training. Or they are focused on certificated training and not considering that even though aides are classified they work closely with teachers and have instructional duties.

What I’m upset about is not knowing what classroom I’m working in for the school year yet or what teacher.

Sometimes it is just a lack of communication because districts have sections with own unions: certificated, classified, administration.

I am also a special education aide, I can definitely sympathize with you. I feel like aides are not seen as the professionals that we are. Paraprofessionals are hardly ever acknowledged by admin and are frequently taken for granted. What people don’t realize is that schools could not operate without paras to help meet the needs of students.
