My recollection is that PO should only kick in once you are off of TQSA but could be wrong about that. You could always sign up now with an effective date of when you are actually moving out. Maybe someone who has done it more recently can comment.

You get there, check into temporary accomodation (hotel) and collect TQSA.
You check out of the hotel, move into your rented accomodation and you start to collect LQA and PA, and you stop asking for TQSA.

You could contact the principal, but the general info is that they can't interview you unless you show up on their referral list for the position...
haha
Agree it probably wouldn't do much good, BUT it also isn't likely to do much harm at this point. If your name does show up an a referral list then an email might make your name jump out and at least get you an interview. If you are feeling bold, go for it.

Of course I don't know for sure but for APs it looked like it was a 222 day position so that would be a month or so off. For principals I would assume they are a 12 month position. Maybe someone currently in a position would know for sure.
haha
Admin do get some time off during the summer. They generally coordinate between principal and AP (if there is one) so that one of them is always there over the summer.

There should be no fees for the official passports. The pictures are not specifically reimbursed (to my knowledge).
There is a general Foreign Transfer Allowance that you can file for to offset the costs of moving to a foreign country that could be up to $1300, depending on your personal situation.

Ok great! I'm qualified K-8 and I really like kindergarten and have a few years experience also. (I've just fallen in love with prekindergarten the last couple of years!). I have a music minor, but good idea about taking some course this year. I could do it in time for the next hiring process next .....April??

AP History is good but many teachers will also be teaching a range of SS studies classes so he should also maximize the areas that DoDEA considers him qualified in (many teachers get hired to teach a few other non-SS classes as well, so anything else he could add would be great).

Yes.
Wait for your your orders. Immediately upon receipt of orders Google and get the contact info for the on-base post office. Contact the PO and tell them you are PCSing Inbound and want a POB. Follow their instructions and they will assign a box. Get your stateside mail forwarded, and change the mailing address on cedit cards etc.

As posted, you will get a box. Some people still have some mail sent to a US address (we had some go to relatives for a while). Many/most people seem to just have everything sent to their box.

They calculate our pay based on the average of the top 100(?) school districts in the states with a population of 100,000 and this information is normally not available/calculated until May. So, we generally get retro pay back to the beginning of the year, every year.

It'll be frozen if the Director gets his way. Whoops, did that sound negative? I didn't mean to me. I hope the Director doesn't read this. I want to be a good employee,

Open an account at one of the banks or credit unions on base at your new location. They generally offer good deals if you sign up for direct deposit of your check and you can generally withdraw foreign currency or dollars with no fee.
