Hello, LM-netters!
I am hoping that some of you have information about how you were able to
request and receive an aide or assistant.
I am in an elementary school library with a student population of less than
350, but we're rapidly approaching that number. The other schools with
comparitive populations in the district have paraprofessionals with the
media specialist in the library.
This is my first year at this school, and I absolutely love it! However, I
have been told that in the past, the media specialists before me had also
asked for full or part time help and were just given a schedule with a
paraprofessional for an hour or so a day (which is what we're doing now).
Has anyone in this situation been able to secure an assistant? There is so
much need for it here, as I have great ideas and want to collaborate,
decorate, teach classes, make webquests, etc., but now I am spending a
majority of my time shelving books and checking them in. These kids
circulate materials like wildfire! The shelving cart overfloweth!
I will post a hit of responses.
Thanks,
M.Davis
