[quote=Anonymous]It’s a circular problem. I have one young relative with a special Ed masters who is not teaching, and another who is considering leaving and trying to get into admin. The job, as designed, is just too tough. Classes too big, not enough supprt from admin or from paras. My relative didn’t have lunch breaks for years because her kids needed to eat in the classroom, much less did she get planning breaks. And some of the kids were violent. And she keeps getting shuffled to where they need her. She was really invested and committed but this is breaking her. We can’t expect people to do one of the hardest jobs in the world and not give them lunch breaks and other supports! And give them more authority over where they get transferred—it’s like being in the military, they just send you wherever. [/quote]
