having students bite, pee, & cuss at you is the price for being a self contained special ed teacher.

I am sped certified, but would NEVER be a sped self contained teacher just for those reasons alone. Guess I'm selfish. ;)

Although, with this group this year, I wouldn't put it beyond them to bit or pee on me. It's only October and I've sent more kids to the office then I have ever done in my career before.

oh, BTW, our lifeskills teacher is physcially being worn down by her students. I take one look at her and REFUSE to ever do self contained. They kids injure her on a daily basis. She even had to have shoulder surgery from lifting one wheel chair bound student who constantly goes into violent seizures.

But, it's also the principal support that make a difference. Our principal KNOWS what this is doing to her, but won't let her take any other position. Probably because the said teacher can't say NO when asked to do something.
ick ick ick.

Just sharing the info. ;)
