Nebo School District

A day at work is working with children with severe disabilities. Working on goals, toileting, maintaining life skills, their health
( watching for seizures, and then being able to under the supervision of the nurse take care of what needs to be taken care of). If meds need to be administered, swiping the VNS (Vegas nerve simulator), or  enigma to stop the seizure. Helping with OT.(occupational therapy) to PT. (Physical therapy) putting the students in standers or walkers. Working on the students with the safety of them to make sure that they are not in any harm. Loading them on and or off the bus. Taking them out in the community to get them out in the public.  I would say that the hardest part of the job is seeing the children actually have the seizures and then know that there is nothing that change to stop it but meds and they are a hit and miss. The best part of the job is working with such amazing children and the things that they have taught me such as patience and how to love life so much.

The district is always adding to teachers’ plates and never taking away. They are so quick to adapt new curriculum before fully training you or better yet, getting rid of the old curriculum first. The focus of what they want you to be trained on every year shifts so dramatically. It’s in one door and out the next in a matter of months.

On a side note, I firmly believe teachers of Nebo should be allowed to wear jeans on Fridays. We motivate our students, so why not motivate us? I also believe if the district offered daycare like some hospitals do for their employees that it would help eliminate teacher turn over; especially for working moms. Overall, the kids are great! The behaviors, constant school turn around, and lack of support from time to time can be discouraging. However, I’m very grateful for the insurance and the employer matching employee HSA contributions. That’s been great! 

Working at Nebo School District is really the only job I've ever had, and really the only job I ever see myself wanting. I love getting to work with kids, I love getting to work with my hands, and I love actually making a difference. I've worked my way up from the very bottom of the ladder (Substitute Student Sweeper) to the management position where I am now. I've had intelligent and caring supervisors the entire time I've been here. 

I definately loved working with Spanish speaking kids coming from other countries and helping them adapting to the American culture. Many of them, being so young have very difficult and tramautazing stories and having someone kind and patient can help them tremendously with the cultural transition (food, language, rutines, etc) The job is very rewarding since you have the possibility to make a difference in their lives. Unfortunately, the pay is low and are also the work hours offered a week. Because it is a part-time job there are not benefits offered or opportunities of growth.

I work in Special Education, I love seeing the students improve in even the smallest increments. I arrive at 7:30 and get off at 2:pm which is nice. One of the hard things over the years is there have been many injuries because students don't always know better, and they often do hit or kick, bite or pull hair. But usually you can avoid it and overall they are usually a joy to work with and I must love it because I have worked with them for 15 years!

I was a adult sweeper. During a typical day I would clean the gym, computer lab, library, faculty room, front office, and the front entrance. I loved my boss he was a very kind and understanding man, and always let me have time off when I asked ahead of time. I loved the people I worked with they all made the job worth it. The only downside was that I only had about three hours a day and was paid around 10 dollars an hour. If I could of stayed longer then just the school year and gotten a higher pay I diffidently would of stayed with this job.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The children were great. Teacher and principal were amazing. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Not enough teachers per student ratio. 
Other people in my exact position got a raise and I didn't due to being in a different classroom but same duties.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Fun and adventurous.  Great culture.  The school is a good school 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Help kids off of the bus. Help with circle time. Assist in learning and play. Prepare snack. Assist at recess.

I would make lesson plans for all my students which had a range from k-6th grade. I then would pull 2-3 students at a time and help each one with their specific needs concerning their progression in the English language. I had to work jointly with the students teachers and Principal of the school to help these students. I was also required to translate documents into Spanish when asked to do so. I also translated for teachers and parents when they would have meetings. I loved working with the students, students families, and staff.

Nebo School District was a positive place to work.  The administration was eager to improve instructional practices and to support staff as they implemented those practices.

I worked eight hours a day, both with students and staff.  I had recently retired from California as an administrator and so it was interesting to observe the relationship between the teachers and their administrators since my job was a bridge between the two groups.   The most enjoyable part of the job was working with individuals, both staff and students.

I enjoyed working for the district.  I had a fun team who worked hard, but we were very successful in our work. Typical day - I arrived at 7:30 and said hello to kids in the hall.  Made copies for the upcoming classes.  Checked email for school and had papers ready for class when bell rang.  Took role, gave 10 minutes of direct instruction and moved into exploration.  Best part of the job is the kids.  Culture is great.
