BUTLER COUNTY EDUCATIONAL SERVICE CENTER

This job stretches across 18 different school districts, making for extreme diversity of environments and job skills. It is a must to be able to be flexible, fast, and efficient when entering a teachers class room.  

 It is my job to make sure the teachers lesson plan is still executed in a way that is understood.  This can be a hard task considering it may just be my first time meeting the students.  It takes  hard core communication skills to gain immediate respect and run a class room that works. 

The hardest part would be hearing and seeing behaviors and constant disrespect in inner City Schools.  It was a little bit of a challenge at first.  This is what keep me going back to these same schools, the challenge, the desire to break through with these students.  Well, I did and I acquired some unlikely fans, these fans became the most enjoyable part of my job.  I was able to connect and actually get them excited about education.  The actual connection is something that not every teacher is able to make.

I felt unconnected to the company, and wasn't provided with any information concerning the job. My only interaction was with an automated phone call or my computer screen. The interview was comprised entirely of showing your offical Bachelor's Degree and submitting to a background check. The only training we were given was about how to book a job through AESOP, and how to clean up bodily fluids safely.

I have really enjoyed my time working for the Butler County ESC; my supervisor is knowledgeable, supportive, and provides great feedback to help develop my clinical skills. Free professional development is provided so it’s easy to keep up with continuing education requirements. The work environment within my schools has been a great community, with staff bonding activities, flexibility with sick time, and a good collaborative team. I’ve been able to establish strong rapport with teachers and families. In my specific placement, there are some difficulties with higher up management prioritizing adding more classrooms rather than providing more resources to special education, and the pandemic restrictions increased the workload demands, but overall this has been a great company to work for. 

This was the worst place I have ever worked. Management has a toxic culture that they refuse to address despite an independent company’s evaluation of senior leadership with recommendations to make it better. There is bullying of employees and no empathy to working parents despite providing services to help parents get back to work! I could go on about the irony of this place for days. The boots on the ground employees are some of the most fantastic, selfless individuals who have their hearts in their work. It’s a shame they are severely underpaid and unappreciated. 

Terrible management, but it is not their fault. Supervisors cannot help the fact that they have not had any real managerial training. If you are older you will be passed over for professional development, conferences, raises (only mandatory COLAs), and promotions. Do not expect to be paid for any accumulated vacation or severance when you leave. The program seems more important than the staff. Bullying.

A typical day can be pretty taxing, but on the whole is worth it. Pay is low for other similar positions in private education. Workplace culture can be a little clique-ish as everyone stays within their building group for the most part. The hardest part of the job is staying on top of everything when they are constantly throwing new things at you.

The work itself is very rewarding. The pay is low for how hard you work and the expectations of what you can accomplish. Management is very disconnected with the personnel and the families that are involved in the program. The hardest part of this job was the lack of training - you are very much expected to hit the ground running with very little support.

This is a great job for someone who wants flexibility of days and hours you wish to work.  As a mom, I was able to work the hours my children are in school and be home when they were.  You also get the holidays off with your children.  The pay however is low especially if you worked as a long-term substitute and did the same job as a regular teacher including all the grading and paperwork involved.

Visits every week, working with at-risk community, love the comprehensive program. Focuses on education without forgetting social services part. Agency always focuses on employees well-being. Fun place 

Head Start is a wonderful program for low income children and children with special needs. Children learn social skills and age appropriate activities to get them ready for Kindergarten.
Head Start is governed by Butler County Educational Service Center. The benefits are excellent including State Teacher' s Retirement, medical,dental vision and summers off for some staff.
