Unfortunately, I had to leave the great state of Montana after
graduating from MSU in 2001. There were no jobs in the areas
where my family was situated. I don't care about the low pay and
now benefits, I would just like a job there :)
My husband misses Montana terribly and so do I. I would love a
special education teaching job there so keep your ears posted for
me! When there is, I am on it!!!
