I was in teacher's lounge today and the subs there said that
there are a million applicants for every job. St. Vrain just
laid off 85 teachers and Denver closed a bunch of schools and
laid off a bunch of teachers. Your best bet is to sub and
get to know Principals. CO is tough place to get a teaching
job right now unless you want to do Special Ed or Math *but
you have to be highly qualified for math.
