My "assistant" has been reassigned to me even though I was promised a new one. She does whatever she wants, is late every day, is never where she is supposed to be, and does not complete her delegated responsiblilties.(She hasn't even taken attendance since November.) I teach Spec. Ed to children ages 6-9, and I teach two grades simultaneously. The "higher-ups" are well aware of the problems. (I started in Feb.06 and I am told the problem is well known and has been for some time.) I will not make progress with my students in the coming year, and could lose my cert. if I am held responsible in any way for her actions( or inadequacy). ( Everyone knows administration steps aside and the teacher goes down if the school is sued because she is not doing her job.) She makes fantastic money and has 18yrs experience . ( I have 10). It is not personal. I only made progress this year because I have 2 one to ones in my room helping me. She is definitely a liability.What to do?I have no tenure!
