Paraeducators are appreciated across all Lynden Schools. Isom Elementary staff highlight the work of the “paras” in helping students learning reading, writing, math and social skills. They aid students in gaining confidence reading aloud and by working individually with students, this one-on-one or small group time allows for students to advance academic abilities. Paraeducators are also found in the lunchroom, on the playground and around the school, focused on the good of every kid.
