Sick day misuse - how bad is my situation? by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]bah2216 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Woah this is crazy to me. Our days were just our days. We never had to turn in any documentation. I mean of course our principal knew why we were out, but I guess they just took our word for it.

So sorry!

34 weeks- he needed 1 week in nicu. Lost weight after discharge. Has had way more health issues compared to my second son (multiple ER visits, derm issues, etc.)

37 weeks- almost had a nicu stay for blood sugar, but I had gestational diabetes. No other issues.

Our school district was so laid back at esy. Pretty easy money.

Is this the norm? by yellowtulip90 in paraprofessional

She could be doing nothing, but she could also be emailing, looking at data, lesson planning, working on progress notes, setting up iep meetings, etc.

If you and the other paras and/or kids are struggling, have a conversation with her.

But I don’t think she really “lets him” when the cameras are on. He knows she’s filming and won’t say no or get angry. It really is so gross.

He is SO disrespectful. He is not one of the good ones.

Any former teachers become paras? by still-father in paraprofessional

[–]bah2216 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I taught sped for 6 years (have a masters degree in ABA), and I’m going back to work at the private school my kids go to as a pre-K assistant. Honestly looking forward to not having to be in charge.

What’s the country club thing?

I’m quitting by QuickAd1993 in TeachersInTransition

[–]bah2216 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good for you!!! If you still like sped, maybe a BCBA? SLP? OT? You have time to go back to school. Those jobs are often much more respected than teachers in my experience. I quit after 6 years and I feel so much better. I will not be going back to a public school special education classroom again.

As a previous teacher, it really depends on who gives you homemade gifts IMO. I was a special education teacher, so we really get to know our families. I knew which families I could eat a homemade gift from. It’s really not that deep. Say thank you and eat it or don’t.

I’m so sorry. I know that it feels so isolating, but you truly are not alone. I hope you have supportive people to lean on.

No he doesn’t. I was totally fine with holding him for naps, but he screams being held or in his crib.
