No, we were talking about semester hours to be considered qualified by DoDEA in specific subject areas (Bio, Chem, etc. vs. General Science). Generally, you need a science related degree that includes 12 semester hour credits in that specific area to be considered qualified. We were discussing whether having a state cert cut the normally required 1...See More

@haha, Thank you for clarifying this. I wasn't aware of the the alternative way to be qualified to teach subject area(s) just by holding a regular degrees in the subject(s). I thought we had to take the state certification tests.
Thanks again!
Thanks again!

I got a request for an interview for a part time English teaching job at fort campbell. I don't think I can realistically support myself on a part time salary schedule and it's not really a location I want to be in.
Would a polite explanation of this and a decline to interview be a nail in a coffin for future interviews? ...See More

Just decline with a simple statement. No need to over-explain.
There are no repercussions for declining an interview. Rather, it's the opposite. HR and principals appreciate the clarity.
They just move onto the next name on the list.

I'm so excited that I am finally getting referrals, but I am wondering if anyone knows/can give me names of schools that DO NOT currently have option/availability of high school for my own children? I read in a post that Naples might not (in additio...See More

As far as I know, if there is a DoDEA high school at the base, then a teacher's dependents should be allowed to attend (barring what has already been posted, or some significant disability/medical condition that the school is not prepared to handle/support).

These are all the locations that have a high school.

Just curious if it's because the SPED areas are mainly in abundance due to shortages. I'm not really seeing anything for music, SS, drama, elementary, art,PE,gifted, English, ESL etc
It also seems like everyone...See More

It's just random. HR thinks they have a system, and maybe they have, some secret system that's not apparent to anyone outside HR.
It's just random. Don't overthink it.

I concur, definitely random

Based on my very limited knowledge, I'm not aware of any agreement. Competitive service implies that positions are open to everyone, exams, etc. are required and taken into account, etc., so maybe not? :S

I've heard SHAPE is very small, but it has an international community. Travel from that area is easy. I've also heard limited support (commissary, exchange, after school activities for children). Some consider it one of the top locations, but others have left because of the small size. With the international community, there is a lot of competition...See More

Thanks! That info actually helps a lot. Just a waiting game now.

From the DODEA website:
0333: Teacher, Physics
A major in physics or a minimum of 30 SH in the field of science is required. Course work must include a minimum of 12 SH in physics...See More

Ask HR specifically. Normally I would also say 12 but I seem to recall someone who posted that the specific subject hours were also halved for them. It's worth an email.

Thanks to you both. I'll double check with HR. I guess if I need two more credits, I'll pick them up in the fall since I'm up to my ears right now between distance teaching and working through 9 semester credits in health.
