Haha, I know this is an old post. But, I would love to hear more about your experiences as a DODEA Special Ed teacher. What has your average case load been and what type of special ed are you teaching?
haha
I was hired for Moderate to Severe and Learning Impaired Mild to Moderate (middle and high school) and did a bit of both at my first school. I had 2-3 Mod to Severe students that I had for everything except specials and around 10 LIMM students that came to me for Learning Strategies (basically a resource room) and/or individualized ELA/Math. I also...See More
I see posts about email updates, but I never got one. However, I just created an application in Jan for the next school year. After submitting/finalizing, I went back in and changed my target date to 20/21 instead of 21/22.
I emailed HR last week to check on whether or not my app was finalized and I received this response:
Your a...See More

I can't even log in either. Yesterday I was able to get in and update all sections except the section titled, "Additional Experiences." That section had an error. This is nerve wracking!

The update your profile email came to me today. The website is super glitchy. Anyone else have that? I'm guessing lots of people are using it at once, maybe? Good luck everyone!

I was finally able to complete every step in updating my application! It is done and I am ready! Fingers crossed for this year!! Hoping and Praying!

beyondhopeful: thanks! I'll finish mine tonight. I'm also hoping and praying for this year. This is 8 years for me and I only have 1-2 years left before I'm going all in on my state's retirement and committing to where I'm at.

"Normally", your start date should be the date you are expected to be at your new post and available to begin work (subject to/working around admin tasks you need to complete to get settled in and be able to live/do your job). Your actual first day of work/teaching responsibilities would generally be discussed with your principal, based upon the sc...See More

I think there is only one general email for HR/hiring right now. Try there and see if an individual replies with some feedback or next steps.

There's just one school closing this year. It's last day is scheduled for June 09. It's not being combined, or constructed, or moved, or anything else. It will simply shut. The official announcement was months ago.

Well, HR should not be screening by age, but principals can certainly look at when someone graduated college, years of experience, etc. and get a rough idea of someone's age. I can't say that some principals might not take that into consideration when looking for new staff, positively or negatively. Many principals do want a mix of youth and experi...See More

Thee are no age restrictions.
And in my opinion it's easier to get hired as a older teacher, than as a younger teacher. The way that the referral list is created favors older teachers. Older teachers generally have more years of experience, more certs, and more advanced degrees. These are the main criteria for getting a high placement on t...See More

Everyone faces long odds of getting hired with DoDEA and yours don't really sound any better or worse than anyone else's.
