Hi, Tina,
My suggestion to you is that you add a minor in another field
to complement the elementary ed. and social studies. Those
two fields are not "high demand" areas as soooo many people
in DoDDS already have elementary and/or social studies
certifications. Try adding a cert in a third field such as
math, science, physical education, art, a foreign language.
The more areas of certification you have the greater chances
of being picked up by DoDDS.
