  Case: Annoying Aid
In my current internship, I am working in a ESE Center school. I have 8 middle school students in a self-contained SVE classroom. The classroom is run very well, and there are very few behavior issues for the types of students that we have. If students get out of control, we have a radio that we use to call the behavior specialists. One of the aids will call for behavior at the drop of a hat, and does not even try to address little problems herself. My CT gets frustrated, and so do I, but she does not do anything about it. How could you handle this situation without causing problems between the teachers in the classroom?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
A simillar situation happened in my internship with an aid. The CT ended up having a conference with the administrtaion as well as the Aid. It was awkward but after a while of time and the aid not changing they eneded up letting her go.

The suggested solution is original Yes
Comments: The situation should be addressed by the CT not the intern. I agree that it should bubble up the chain of command from the CT to have a conference with administration and the Aid. If the aid is not doing what is expected of her, then she needs to be let go. The specialist cannot be expected to focus solely in this classroom.

Comments: I think a conversation should be had with the aid before including the administration, because that could cause them to feel attacked or threatened.
