MEMORANDUM*


4
The employment position Bradford desires--reinstatement as a resource room teacher--would require her to physically interact with students, lift disabled students out of wheelchairs and sometimes physically restrain students with behavioral problems.  Bradford concedes she cannot perform the physical aspects of the job.


5
Delegating these duties to a full-time teacher's aide is not a reasonable accommodation.  There was uncontradicted evidence that positioning disabled students in their wheelchairs is specialized work for which special education teachers must be licensed.  See ER 52.  There was similarly undisputed evidence that handling emotional and behavioral outbursts properly--including restraining students when necessary--is also an essential part of the resource room job.  The school cannot allow a teacher to delegate these essential functions to an unlicensed aide.


6
AFFIRMED.
