Rashid’s Para to Teacher Journey

 

Rashid Ibrahim, originally from Kenya, joined West Fargo in 2016 and became a dedicated paraprofessional at West Fargo High School. Recognizing the vital role paraprofessionals play in supporting classroom instruction and special needs students, Rashid aspired to expand his impact. With a teaching background from Kenya, he embraced the opportunity offered by the West Fargo Area Education Foundation’s partnership with Minot State University. Awarded the 2020 Program for Inclusive Education Scholarship, Rashid pursued a bachelor’s degree in Special Education and Math. After completing his student teaching at Cheney Middle School in 2024, Rashid is set to begin his teaching career in West Fargo in spring 2025. Congratulations Rashid!
