[quote=Anonymous]- Pay subs more, especially long term subs. Anyone who subs for more than 30/60/90/120 days in a school year gets a daily pay bump. Anyone who subs for consecutive years also gets a pay bump. Also, pay subs for training. It's probably illegal that they don't.
- Pay support staff more, especially if they have a relevant degree or experience. The pay bump was good, but it's not enough to entice most literate people. I mention "literate" because these are the folks who will be working with emerging readers or students with disabilities who have detailed instructional or behavioral plans. They also get pulled to cover regular classes a lot. Anyone who doesn't think this is an issue hasn't been in a classroom lately.
- Get rid of instructional coaches and curriculum specialists
- SPED should be on its own higher pay scale, especially low incidence/EBD/CSS/PAC. Don't hire anyone in these classrooms who has a provisional license and/or zero experience as a lead teacher. The pay should be a lot higher, but the qualifications should be a lot higher, too. 
- Every single ES should have an advanced math and advanced reading track starting in 3rd grade for the top 20% of students. [/quote]
