I was a sub. teacher but never a para. Im sure you get calls alot. I know at my school we have had a few sub paras this year. I think you should check out the fair,

My sister was a substitute para while she was getting her bachelor's degree - she said it was okay but they do expect you to be able to travel at the drop of a hat... you'll get a call at 7:30 and they'll want you in a school by 8:00. If you have a good car and you're good with directions it's fine but if you're going to rely on public transportation this might not be the job for you.

I used to sub as a para, and after a while I was hired I have been a para for 11 years now. Great job,and hours. Dept of ed City pays for college. I love my job.
