Paraprofessionals are the unsung heroes of special education, providing essential academic, social, and emotional support to students with disabilities. Working alongside teachers, they facilitate inclusion, assist with daily tasks, and implement behavioral strategies, ensuring students thrive. Despite their critical role, they often face low wages, limited training, and burnout. Recognizing and advocating for better resources, training, and compensation is vital.
Let’s support paraprofessionals and push for the respect and resources they deserve!

Cell phone bans in schools spark debate: do they boost focus or hinder accessibility? While research shows bans can improve academic performance and reduce distractions, they also create challenges for students with special needs who rely on assistive technology. Striking a balance—such as designated tech-free zones or personalized accommodations—may be the best solution.

What do you think? Should schools enforce strict bans or adopt a more flexible approach? Share your thoughts in the comments!

President Donald Trump’s proposal to eliminate the U.S. Department of Education (DOE) has sparked debate over federal involvement in schools.

Without federal oversight, education quality could vary widely.
As this issue unfolds, stay informed, advocate for students, and engage in discussions about the future of education in America.
