[ISLMA-Share] Assistants hired as teachers

Hi,

I read it last year, and while it is hard at first, her life circumstances were very difficult, her journey is one of hope. What grade are your students?

War that Saved My Life I heard was very depressing and worried heavy for students. Thoughts??

Unfortunately, I have seen it happen several times.  Sometimes, I think it is budget, if they can pay a great teacher assistant pay, why pay them more? Other times, I think it might have been, hire a younger teacher with less experience (degrees) so the district can pay lower on the pay scale. Last, but not least, perhaps they only see her as an assistant and applying in a nearby district would help with interviewing process and having other districts call to check on her work ethic will open the eyes of your district.

For the last 3 years, I've had a beyond fabulous assistant (yes, I know I'm lucky!) who seriously goes above and beyond and has won the respect of every teacher and student in our building.

The problem? Her heart is really in the classroom and she's been holding out for open teaching positions within our school. She just found out there won't be any openings next year either and her heart is broken.

My question: are there districts that actually hire from the outside pool of applicants rather than from within? Any suggestions or advice for her?

Thanks!
