Hi! I am originally from the Louisville area, and I can
tell you the best school district around there is New Albany
Floyd County Schools. I worked at Georgetown Elementary and
it was an incredible experience! I recently moved up to
Indy, so I had to relocate as well. I am fairly young
teacher, so that was a great first time experience. I am
currently teaching a multi-age class of K-1 right now...but
New Albany Floyd County is in Indiana - and I think Indiana
has a lower cost of living and a higher teaching pay scale.
If you want any more information just e-mail me back! Good
luck!

P.S. I would suggest taking your resume to all of the
principals, they are very nice and will find time for you!
