My Other Children

Jo's first assignment included the title of a New England's High School Special Education Teacher of Basic Math and Basic English Skills and also Resource Support Teacher to assist students with their basic subject classes not considered Special Education. Jo's college special education dept. professors lectures were about how identified labeled students experiences were reminder of her pre-college days life in the segregated south and being prevented much interaction. She was determined not to become her students baby sitter as how their records described their earlier school experiences replacing their academic needs according to basic skills diagnostic testing results. Special Jo found her students but not to mean different. She had four children at home and would say My students are just as special to me.
