  Case: Co-Teacher vs Paraprofessional
Mr B is an 8th Grade Social Studies teacher. He has two "General Ed/Special Ed" classes. In those classes, he has a "Co-Teacher" in the room. Their official titles are Paraprofessional.

Should he expect these parapros to teach like a Co-teacher would or allow them to monitor the students behaviors and help the "special education" students they are assigned to?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
A parapro isn't suppose to have the same duties as a teacher. Their role is more to help and assit with students not be expected to teach.
