Paraeducators provide behavioral supports, one-on-one tutoring, and the extra instructional time and attention that some students need to thrive. These champions of children support teachers and form a vital communication-link to parents.
Schools simply can’t operate effectively without them, and to show our appreciation, Canyons District’s Department of Special Education each year honors thebest in the business. Congratulations to the winners of CSD’s 2017 Outstanding Paraeducator Awards:
