Management doesn’t address staff safety concerns

Sped paraprofessional

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Time off for holidays and summer. Some knowledgeable SPED staff. Fulfilling to assist high needs students. Insurance benefits are better than none at all.

Cons

High needs students aren’t appropriately serviced under SPED. Under staffed units lead to high rate of staff injury. Serious concerns about administration go unaddressed. Nepotism, racism, and discrimination.

Business Outlook

Pros

AISD provided us with paid professional development opportunities throughout the year offsite as well as on our campus. We received good benefits and the ability to voice our opinions on different topics, small and large.

Cons

The workload was extremely stressful and continually increased with administrative tasks, lack of resources when it came to classroom materials in all subjects, lack of support when it came to problem-solving. When it came to expanding on career opportunities there were none whatsoever. Once a teacher, always a teacher. If you want to move up you have to get a higher degree and compete with a lot of individuals who want limited openings each year. Even then your chances are low of moving up the latter.

Working with children is really rewarding. The possibility of helping underserved families and their kids has kept me enduring through my short career as a teacher

Even though the benefits are Ok the payment is not proportional with the amount of work done
