Even when I ask her nicely to complete a task, she agrees to complete the task but then it does not get completed. I have spoken with administration regarding this issue and conferences have been held concerning her job performance. However, it will be after the conclusion of this school year that I may get a new paraprofessional. Any suggestions for the remainder of the school year? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I have almost the opposite problem. She does her work, but is mean and unprofessional. I like you did and go to the administration. I was lucky and my admin set a meeting right away and we had a "knock down" about the attitude. It has gotten a little better, but you your case I would ask for parent volunteers to help with cutting and anything you may have. If she asks why you are asking the parents tell her the truth. The truth hurts.. and make sure she knows that her not completing her job has left you no choice, but to ask for parent volunteers. It will either do one of two things make her embarrassed or more lazy. Make sure you note each time a parent volunteer comes in and helps, have a log that they sign when they come in, so at the end of the year you have proof of this to show at the meeting that you had to reach out for more help. Plus that the parents get involved :-)
