Dozens of Para Educators gathered to call on the Santa Clara County Office of Education to hire more people. They say a lack of staff leaves them susceptible to violent physical attacks from the special needs students they serve throughout the County. One woman describes her own experience. Delia Kline says she’s been a para educator for nine years, working with special education high school students. She says the county released 60 para educators during the pandemic and the shortage is putting the remaining staff in danger. The union filed a complaint with the state’s Occupational Health and Safety Administration on November 7th.
Para Educators are represented by Local Union SEIU 521. They’re also negotiating a contract in which the County offered them a 10% raise for year 1, and a 7% raise for year 2. The union says it wants more staff hired and a three-year contract, but that’s not currently on the table.
