    Posted by RBC on 9/14/08

    Were you able to obtain a Wash. State credential? I think
    you should start substitute teaching at a few districts for
    the rest of the year and build up friends and colleagues.
    If they like you they will call you everyday and let you
    know about upcoming teaching positions your should apply for
    in their school. In my area (Lower valley, Central
    Washington), usually right out of student teaching, you will
    have a job with the district.
