long term sub job

by Kathy

Feb 28, 2016

Tomorrow I start my last week of a long term sub job. The teacher still has to go to the doctor and get another MRI of her injured ankle, but hopefully all is healing well and she'll be able to come back. I've become very attached to the students and the paraprofessionals over the past 4 weeks. The staff at the school has been very welcoming. The principal gave a "Praise Jesus!" when I told her I was coming back this coming week. If the teacher cannot come back I will continue in the position. The children are significantly impacted by autism and need and experienced special ed teacher. They also need consistency in programming. I figure Spring Break starts on Good Friday, March 25th, so I can hang in there at least until then. Kathy

Kathy The teacher texted me yesterday and asked me to sub for her. She was released to return to work, but with several restrictions. HR needs to review those restrictions and decide if she can return to work. I am going back on Monday. Hopefully she will have an answer. Selfishly, I'd like to work next week. I am having my floors refinished and a new f...See More

Kathy I love this job. The kids really need the consistency as this is a classroom for primary students who are severely impacted by autism. I worked with this teacher 4 years ago. She took the job in the autism room and loves it. She has a para who is going to be a special education teacher. She told me it's more like co-teaching with him. I felt a bit ...See MoreI love this job. The kids really need the consistency as this is a classroom for primary students who are severely impacted by autism. I worked with this teacher 4 years ago. She took the job in the autism room and loves it. She has a para who is going to be a special education teacher. She told me it's more like co-teaching with him. I felt a bit better when she told me that. He is organized and takes care of the schedule and some of the Smartboard activities. I have become more comfortable with the schedule and we are sharing more and more. On Friday one of the specialists was asking him questions about one of the children and he directed her to me. That made me feel really good. I am loving this population. I had the opportunity to apply for the position when she did. I am pretty sure I'd still be teaching if I had the position (same paras or not). Kathy
