You are going to say that I am mean and snobby, but so be it.

I hope that your letters of interest do not contain so many
misspellings and typographical errors.

I know that most people believe that spelling, grammar, and
vocabulary don't matter. I'm not one of them, and neither are
many administrators.

Also, Colorado is heavily saturated with highly qualified
teachers. You'll have to put in your two to five years as a
substitute like most others here
