[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you following any of the posts on DCUM lately? Schools are trying to fill special ed positions with anyone they can.  At this point, they can’t demand both a math or English certification along with special education. They can barely find applicants with any special education course work. [/quote]

Would you want your child learning geometry from any warm body or do you think the person FCPS hires should be qualified? [/quote]

If my child had emotional disabilities or special needs to the point of needing to be in a high school for SN, I wouldn’t give a sh*t about geometry of all things, I’d care the people teaching her were trained in handling the needs that necessitates her going to that school. [/quote]

I disagree with this premise. My neighbor’s dc has been in special Ed only schools for almost all of his school years-not fcps schools but fcps pays and sends a bus. The low quality of the teachers and staff hired at these schools according to her are often bottom of the barrel types who can’t get hired by the public schools and they are often not qualified at all. His academic education has been very poor. It’s not just like, six months out of a child’s education gets spent at these schools and then they are “fixed” and can go catch up with qualified teachers at a good school.
It’s his whole entire education. [/quote]
