> p.s. were you a teacher prior to becoming a school counselor? Hello Jamie, To answer your question, I intered at my high school where I am a
special education teacher. I have been teaching at my high school
for four years. We do have a vacancy for next year but I hear that
it may not be filled due to budget cuts. The reason that I said
that I hear is because the principal told me that we are going to
have a vacancy but the lead counselor told me otherwise. I also
heard that one of the counselors is trying to bring in a friend
and that the principal is all for it. So, my school is sort of
shady to say the least. And I leave in Atlanta also but near the
airport. Good Luck
