I do have a minor in Preschool so I'm not sure how that works with them. I will certainly look into the other options given. Thanks!
haha
For PreK or K generally you would need 24 credit hours in early childhood (with some of those being methods classes) to be qualified with DoDEA. If you have or can get state certifications in one or both of those then you would only need 12 hours of EC (you would still need the methods classes in literacy and math I believe). So, if you have a mino...See More

While I don't have specific local hire information, I do know that spousal preference regulations say you can use it up to 30 days before arrival.... it would (kind of) make sense that if you can claim spousal preference only 30 days in advance that you might also be able to claim local hire ahead of time? Could a call to HR provide more insight?
Mrs.C
I will add that the DoDEA website defines local hires as: "A local hire is any DoDDS educator who was offered and appointed to a position within the commuting area of the sponsor after arrival in the overseas area. Almost all local hire educators are military and DoD civilian spouses." This seems to imply you must already be at the new duty locatio...See More

Part 3 (final part- apparently the original was too long or the final trip adviser link would not allow me to submit).
Long story short, Japan is a great place to live. Iwakuni can feel small and isolated, but is actually very close to some great site-seeing adventures. A quick internet search will show what great sight-seeing opportunitie...See More

I would second everything Mary has said. Iwakuni is a nice base with a lot of new schools, construction/projects going on (visited for sports trips). I've not heard anything bad about the base or schools there. There seems to be a lot to do in the community and surrounding area.
Getting around outside of base is generally very easy. Longer...See More

It says I need 15 semester hours. Where's the best place to get those? Is GT the same as AVID?
haha
There are many colleges that offer online courses. Check PDI, Learner's Edge and University of La Verne for fairly cheap and quick classes. Otherwise, google and check school sites for classes with gifted, talented, etc. in the title.
No, AVID is a specific class for certain students (not gifted, not SPED generally) that teaches organizati...See More

Mrs.V-I had problems with the auth code also. I used the code at the end of the link that was sent in the email and it worked...it's the series of numbers/letters after the "activate/-----" on the link.

Both went well and I'm waiting to see if my account goes inactive/email from HR telling me what is going on hopefully.

I'm sorry. But hang in there. You never know when you will get the next interview request.

You will need to pay your own relocation expenses if you are not located there. You will need to pay for your own housing. Not sure if there is housing available on post or not, but if it is and you live on post, your children would be permitted to attend the DoDEA schools. For pay, make sure you look at the Stateside pay scale (may be labled DDESS...See More

You are better off posting this on the FL board (although someone might have answers for you here).
I am a SPED teacher and am from FL. I know teachers that teach Hearing Impaired students. It seems to be a relatively high needs area (hard to find qualified teachers) but also has relatively fewer positions compared to other subjects.
