    Kathy,

    EVERYWHERE needs special ed of some kind. North Central KS
    is a great place to live.

    School Districts around Ft. Riley include: Manhattan/Ogden,
    Geary County (this is Junction city and Ft. Riley), Chapman,
    Abilene, Rock Creek, Randolph-Blue Valley.

    There are tons of places that I m sure if you walked into the
    District Office and said, "Im a special ed teacher" would
    hook you up with a job.

    KS Dept of Ed would be my first stop as for certification
    requriements.

    www.kansasteachingjobs.com is the next stop for a job.

    Enjoy your move
