Canton Schools Aim To Hire Many Paraeducators

CANTON, CT — The Canton School System has issued notices this month that it is looking to fill several paraeducator positions for the next school year.

Next week, the Canton School System is hosting a "job fair" for prospective paraeducators.

It will take place Wednesday, July 24, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Canton High School, 76 Simonds Ave., Collinsville (Canton).

"We currently have multiple openings and are actively seeking paraeducators to work with our students at Cherry Brook Primary School, Canton Intermediate School, Canton Middle School and Canton High School," wrote the school system earlier this month.

"Our paraeducators are some of the most dedicated, talented, and creative individuals. This truly is a wonderful opportunity to support our children and we invite you to consider becoming a key part of what makes for quality educational programming within Canton Public Schools."

Paraeducators serve a vital role in any school system, as they work with teachers to help students and their families and assist with lessons and school programs/events.
