Howard County is looking for more Special Ed teachers
There’s a nationwide shortage of special education teachers.
Ahead of the school year, districts are working hard to recruit special education personnel for the classroom.
Howard County officials have been working hard since the fall to recruit special ed teachers.
They have some vacancies heading into the school year and are currently looking to hire people.
Dr. Terri Savage is the Chief Academic Officer for Howard County Public Schools.
She is also a former special ed teacher who says working in special ed comes with it challenges, but it's also very rewarding.
“The thing that brings us a smile to most of our faces is the smiles you see on our learners faces when they are able to accomplish something they thought maybe they couldn’t do, said Dr. Savage.
That’s why Dr. savage is hoping more people will sign up to be special ed teachers.
