General and York 4 Questions!

by FromVA2SC

Jan 30, 2009

Hi All,

I would appreciate/love lots of info from ya! =) I am currently teaching in VA and have been happy here for the past three years-- but with the current economy there are a lot of changes right now in my school district ... like job cuts, salary reductions, and no more funding for just about everything!! Seems like a good time to move on...

My sister works near the Fort Mills area and I would love to move closer to her. She isn't a teacher but mentioned that a lot of people she knows substitute in the area and I have heard the best things about the district since I've looked into it. I also noticed that 2 new schools are expected to open. (Of course a new school in my county in VA was also opening but they are no longer opening to save money...)

So I have questions:

Is this a district that is hard or competitive to find a job in? I have a Master's and 3 yrs. experience, but I noticed they weren't even taking substitute applications! Are lots ...See More
