Just saw this and had to share because some of the most amazing people I know are IA's. ❤️ RHS Life Skills Class is so blessed to have such amazing Teacher's aids involved with our students!
Somewhere out there,
there's a Para,
a Teacher's Aide,
a Para-Educator,
a Para-Professional.
Somewhere out there,
there's a Para wipping a nose.
A Para wiping tears.
All for the love of a child.
Somewhere out there,
there's a Para pushing a wheelchair around 3rd base.
A Para cheering and yelling, "go straight."
All for the love of a child.
Somewhere out there,
there's a Para repeating a math problem,
a Para sharpening a pencil,
All for the love of a child.
Somewhere out there,
there's a Para showing a student how to go through the lunch line,
and how to make new friends.
All for the love of a child.
Somewhere out there,
there's a Para teaching a student the box step, so he can ask a girl to dance.
A Para reminding students to be kind.
All for the love of a child.
Somewhere out there,
there's a Para teaching a student how to tie their shoes,
or change their clothes.

Somewhere out there,
there's a Para repeating a zoom lesson.
A Para cleaning a classroom.
All for the love of a child.
Somewhere out there,
there's a Para making games out of homework.

All for the love of a child.
Somewhere out there,
There's a Para lying awake at night.
A Para anxious about a new day.
All for the love of a child.
Somewhere out there,
There's you.
A Teacher's Aide.
A Para-Educator.
A Para-Professional.
The backbone.
The silent force that move quickly and quietly through the school.
THIS IS MY SHOUT OUT TO YOU!!!!
You are forgotten by many,
But most importantly,
a HERO to some.
For those who are,
or who ever have been,
A PARA.
I know you do this each and everyday,
