My position in my local school district is federally funded. It was a special grant. Lasted two years and now poof it is gone. Before that, I had a position with a special state funded program that was cut due to funding. I started out working in the mainstream public schools, but found that the alternative programs pay more. And the class sizes are considerably smaller. More money, less students. After a relaxing summer off... I will be once again be enjoying a federally funded program for at-risk students.
