    Re: Teaching in NM
    Posted by Liz on 8/04/08

    I am currently enrolled in the certification program through
    Santa Fe CC for secondary education in Political
    Science/History. I hope to move to NM next summer. Would you
    say that I would be able to find a teaching position in either
    Albuquerque or the outlying areas?
