bicky@ucd It is not misleading. It is true that my cousin's school is using my company's service. I just used both of the approaches because stating that I am in the marketing team gives me more credibility. Also, I firmly believe what I said, if I did not work with that company, I would still recommend the services. I am a UC Davis student and have friends ...See More

Marketing/Recruiting Ideas for Private school

by Sally Anne

Jun 15, 2010

I was just wondering what other schools do for recruiting & marketing? I teach at a small, non-religious private school that is dying. Our numbers get smaller each year. My principal came to me asking for new ideas because our old ONE (advertising in a free parents free paper) is no longer working.

Please help!

Dale D Sally Anne,

I posted the following a few weeks ago. I don't know if you saw it, but I'm repeating it because at year's end (last week), we ended up with about 20 more students than we started out with last August. Something is working.

"I, too, am on a marketing committee. Just some of the things we've done in the past year: In ...See More

differentiated learning

by clare

Jun 15, 2010

The main "push" for the 2010-2011 school year is differentiated learning. Any suggestions to ease into it or suggestions for good articles or books on the subject.

Thanks much.

Do public schools look down on private schools?

by Tricia

Jun 28, 2010

I'd appreciate some input on this question. I live in central Texas and taught at a private Catholic school several years and now I'm in public school. I've begun to feel that some public administrators and teachers don't really respect private schools. Someone told me that it's a matter of jealousy against the private schools because they accompli...See More

by Springer

Do any of you have any experience teaching in a Jewish private school? I have a phone interview later this week with a Jewish private school. I'm just curious about what it's like to teach in a Jewish private school. I'm not Jewish, but I would not be teaching any religious classes (obviously). Anybody have experiene with this?

Kindergarten Prayer

by Val

Jul 12, 2010

Hi Everyone! I am looking for a morning prayer that I can do with my kindergarten class each day. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks a bunch!

lzbth O my God, I offer You, All I think, or say, or do.

All my work and all my play, I give all to You today.

We use this to start our day in grade 1.

Jul 12, 2010

Zodea Angel of God, my guardian dear, To whom God's love commits me here, Ever this day be at my side, To light and guard, to rule and guide.

Of course it's my high school students who like the prayer, but they learned it a long time ago!

4th Christian School Grade Teachers--ABeka

by CarolTN4

Jul 13, 2010

As I am sitting here working on materials for school, it occurred to me that there are lots of us teachers who use the ABeka curriculum and have to supplement it with different study aids and resources. Anyone willing to share what you might have developed? For example, I have made term sheets/flashcards for all of the chapters in science/health an...See More

Resigning vs. Non-renewal

by Hope

Jul 24, 2010

If a teacher is allowed to resign rather than be officially "non-renewed" by the school board, then do the school's records show that the teacher is O.K. as far as being hired by other schools? Or, would they tell potential new employers that this person was forced to resign?

Also, how would this teacher answer those questions on job appl...See More

Ooii I don't know how it works in terms of unemployment, but the benefits of resigning rather than taking a non-renewal still far outweigh any benefits you may get from getting unemployment IMO.

I resigned from a job several years ago, when I discovered that there was a good chance that I would be non-renewed. What others have suggested--that ...See More
