Fair point TeacherMama722. I hadn't done the math on four months out until you said that! That would be really tough.
haha
Actually most people don't arrive at their new posting until early August so you would still be fine. As long as you have enough time to get your driver's license, CAC card, transportation etc settled before school starts you are fine.

We were in Europe for 3 years and liked it a lot but we were thrilled to have the chance to come back to Japan. Life here is generally very good and will vary a bit by your location.

TeacherMama K in Daegu
well, that is common in all schools, right? we call it de-staffing in my county. when K numbers go down sometimes you lose that bubble class. Where are you posted now?
haha
You must be stateside since DoDEA overseas has never had a RIF. There is always a slim chance of being excessed with overseas schools if your school is losing too many students and you have the lowest seniority at a certain position.
RIF's do happen stateside. If it does they will try and place you in another school but there is no guarant...See More

You could take it all (provided that it is not school property of course) since DoDDS ships up to 18000 pounds of your belongings for you.
Bring anything you think will make you or your new students more comfortable and/or will help you teach.

I am a k-12 world language teacher/ms in curriculum and a instruction. I was asking because you said you had an interview in Daegu, I wanted to know what openings they had there in SK.

Now I'm waiting too... had an interview morning. And my principal is out of the building in meetings today, so I can't even ask her if they've emailed her! Waiting game commences....

It is exciting, but I did not select Bahrain as one of my locations on my EAS.
In your opinion, does this mean that they are having issues filling the position and pulled everyone? Thus, the referral list would be on the shorter side?

I have 17 certs (none are SPED), but this particular job is for Middle SS, High SS, and High ELA.
I love the job combo, but I didn't really plan considering Bahrain...

For what it's worth, the people who have actually lived and taught there have said it's very nice, westernized and apparently safe. Also, I believe you end up getting more money because (like many places in the ME) schools run Sun-Thursday with Fri and Sat off (which means they have to pay you more for working Saturday).

In truth you probably wouldn't want most US spec cars here anyways. Learning to drive on the other side of the road is tricky for some people and having the steering wheel on the left doesn't really help. Also many roads and parking spaces are on the narrow side so...See More
