PERSONNEL <br />5710 <br />Page 1 of 2 <br /> <br />Bonneville Joint School District No. 93 <br /> <br /> PARAPROFESSIONALS <br /> <br />Paraprofessionals, as defined in the appropriate job descriptions, are under the direct <br />supervision of a properly certificated staff member for the areas they are providing <br />support. The nature of the work accomplished by paraprofessionals will encompass a <br />variety of tasks that may be inclusive of “limited instructional duties.” <br /> <br /> <br />Guidelines <br /> <br />1. Paraprofessionals are employed by the District mainly to assist the teacher in <br />providing instructional support to students. <br /> <br />2. A paraprofessional is an extension of the teacher, who legally has the direct control <br />and supervision of the classroom or playground and responsibility for control and the <br />welfare of the students. <br /> <br />3. In compliance with applicable legal requirements, the Board shall require all <br />paraprofessionals with instructional duties to have earned a high school diploma or <br />general equivalency diploma (GED) and: <br /> <br />a. ParaPro Assessment with a score of four hundred sixty (460) or higher; or <br /> <br />b. Transcripts showing completion of at least two (2) years of study at an accredited <br />postsecondary educational institution with a minimum of thirty-two (32) semester <br />credits; or <br /> <br />c. Transcripts showing completion of an Associate’s or higher level degree. <br /> <br />4. It is the responsibility of each principal and teacher to provide adequate training for a <br />paraprofessional. <br /> <br />a. Training should take into account the unique situations in which a <br />paraprofessional works. <br /> <br />b. Training should be designed to cover the general contingencies that might be <br />expected to pertain to each situation. <br /> <br />5. Each paraprofessional supporting students with special needs will participate in <br />training designed to complete and keep current the Idaho Paraprofessional <br />Standards Competency Documentation form #5710F. <br /> <br />6. The Superintendent/designee shall develop and implement procedures for an annual <br />evaluation of paraprofessionals. <br />
