Synopsis Grievant is currently employed by Respondent as an Aide/Early Childhood Classroom Assistant Teacher. Grievant contends that once she obtained the necessary education and certification to be a paraprofessional, she became entitled to paraprofessional compensation, so long as she works in any aide position and regardless of her actual job duties. The record of this case, and the applicable law, did not support such a conclusion. Grievant failed to prove that she is currently performing paraprofessional duties. Grievant also failed to prove that she was entitled to any more compensation than she already receives in her current position. Accordingly, this grievance is denied.
