Re: I need an Elementary Counseling Job? Any out there?
Posted by Jamie on 4/13/08

    Newly Depressed-
    Where are you in Georgia? I just started my School Counseling
    program and live in Georgia now I'm nervous! Did you not have
    any luck with the school you interned with? Just curious to
    hear more about where you've applied and what the market is like.
    I'm in Atlanta, northern suburbs.
    Thanks, and good luck!
    p.s. were you a teacher prior to becoming a school counselor?
