Working as a special education paraprofessional has been an incredibly fulfilling experience. Every day, I support amazing students as they work toward their goals, academically and personally. I've brought my empathy, patience, and dedication to the role, and in return, I've gained even more understanding of how to adapt and communicate effectively. Collaborating with teachers and staff has strengthened my teamwork skills, and I take pride in creating a supportive environment where students feel safe and empowered. It's a role that's both challenging and deeply meaningful, and I'm grateful for the growth and joy it brings each day.
