Before entering the classroom as a paraprofessional, take a good look at what the job really is. Working alongside teachers, administrators, counselors, and more will vary in each school and district.
With 3+ years experience working as a para in elementary, middle, and high school, this is a collection of my observations, thoughts, and experience as a paraprofessional in the public schools.
Paras have the hardest job, often with only a lunch break, with little to no training.
As an INTJ, this is not my dream job, nor is this job for everyone.
