The early release day at my schools has been for professional development, sometimes for project based learning collaboration, but rarely to be used like common planning time.

My original college prep qualified me for 1-6 general Ed, LIMM, LIMS, severe/profound (I had classes related to severe disabilities). I took two classes that gained me certification in PSCD, PreK gen Ed and Kinder gen Ed. I also took an additional class to certify in EI.

AD Basic Salary Range: $70,242 - $91,104 per year (plus locality)
TP Basic Salary Range: $59,340 - $104,615 per year

AD is stateside and TP is overseas, I believe. So with TP, you would get housing and post allowance.

Same here Wonderlust.... I teach moderate/severe (10/1) and am working toward a BCBA and provide most of the behavior input for my district and I feel like such a loser when I tell people I'm only qualified in three areas for DoDDS and they aren't in my area of expertise...
Wanderlust
I totally understand.. I have a lot of experience in all areas, but qualify in the same three areas as you. It makes me yet again feel as if my degree is worthless, just as I felt when NCLB came into play. We were qualified to teach all 4 core areas in a self contained setting, but once that came about I wasn't qualified to teach LA or Math unless ...See More
I am wondering about when they come to pack up our things, will they also take boxes of food?
For example, dried chiles or masa harina, things I may not be able to get in Japan for Mexican food dishes that I make at home. Thank you.

You could also have family members mail these items to you. It takes about a week for the mail to arrive if they send it priority.

Remember that depending on your destination, customs may have an impact on your allowable items. TMO (the moving office, although I don't know what it *really* stands for).

Teacher Mama in Daegu-You won't see your competency rating. Only the principal can see it when he/she pulls the list of the most qualified applicants. It ranges from 0-200 with 200 being the highest. Some principals choose to interview the top 10 while others choose 3 from the bottom, 3 from the middle, and 3 from the top. PS I taught in Daegu last...See More

ok, then that wasn't my competency rating I saw, cause it said "1". LOL. I doubt I would've been hired with that.

Thanks SanArt. My HR person doesn't seem to be quick on email responding, so I'll give her a call to double check. So, after we send in acceptance and the other attached forms our file goes to a security team? we wait for info from then until our next step? And, I though waiting for the offer was stressful. Hahaha insecure me is like what if someon...See More

Bett, that's what I was told when I e-mailed HR. Here's what I e-mailed a week ago and the response. Me: About 7 days ago I read that I would be getting an e-mail pertaining to completing my background information. Is there anything I should be doing right now for the background?

Amazing experiences, thanks for sharing. I am an empty nester too.

Thanks for the feedback! I'm really excited about the possibility.

I wouldn't. In my district you can choose between offers if they come the same day, but I can't imagine DoDEA allowing such a practice. I was fortunate that the other interview I had was for something I would not want so easy to cancel after my job offer.

Sand Art, I was thinking that was the case. I inquired with HR and was told I must decline interviews. I am excited about the experience in Japan. However, the newest request was for a position and location I was hoping for.
