Rashid Ibrahim, a Paraprofessional at West Fargo High School is the recipient of the 2020 Program for Inclusive Education Scholarship. Rashid will begin teaching in West Fargo in the spring of 2025.

Paraprofessionals play a vital role in supporting instruction in the classroom. They work alongside teachers to reinforce educational lessons and ensure that all students can fully grasp the material being taught.

Paraprofessionals also work with students who have special needs to help them be more successful in general education classrooms. They are supervised by licensed teachers.
