Reply to comment by ObreroJimenez in Los Angeles schools closed as first day of district workers strike begins by Additional-Force-795

I teach special Ed and those children are just a delight. I have had very few jobs where I leave feeling so loved. I learn so much from them.

Bearing the expenses of post-secondary education and eeking out a living on the average teacher's salary seem like a high cost. I'm glad that you're finding value in it.

Special Education tends to pay much better than general ed. I am fortunate to live in a high demand area for this job and make a much higher salary than most jobs I see in exactly the same field. There are intern programs that have the district t bear a portion of the educational cost because demand is so high. I was fortunate to be a part of one of these.
