Interested in teaching ESL or Spanish grades K-5th. I do have thee ACTFL certification. Working on my praxis. Would work part-time or full time as a long term teacher.
I just wanted to give a big thanks to all of the Catholic school teachers! I am now a teacher and really appreciate the schooling I received from St. Mary's.
You need to find out if your salary is figured from July 1 to July 1 of the following year....
Although teachers who are called usually start in late August and get paid from that start date.
I would consult someone with business and tax background.
Being called, are you considered self-employed like I am?
There seems to be some loophole or discrepancy in common understanding of both parties...you and the church. In our church, the Pastor usually consults folks who are in the know about such things.
You might also ask your Pastor or Principal at the new school...or network within the system with admins. you may know. As they say, if you are in the Lutheran Church, everywhere you go you know someone or someone who knows someone. Maybe one of those someones can help you understand and get and answer.
Come to think of it, I and others would like to know any info. you can discover on this topic. I'm sure the question has been raised before.

I think the q...See MoreIn our school, teachers who have a class 6 out of 7 periods do not take a study hall. Teachers who only have 5 out of seven periods filled either take a study hall or are a "permanent sub" for that period. In that case it is actually seen as a good thing since that is one less class they have to prep for and grade papers for.
I think the questions to ask is why are you doing this and not the others. Do you have a lighter work load? Is there some other duty you are excused from? Will the people taking the study hall change next semester to make it more "fair"?
Also at our school if a teacher takes an extra period (7 out of 7) then they do get paid extra. If we sub for someone we get $12 extra dollars for each period. Not the permanent subs though... that is just part of their regular duties.
I'm sure it all comes down to money. The school is saving money by having you cover the study hall.

In religion, you could introduce the Corporal Works of Mercy to the kids, and decide on a way to carry some of them out. You could do a canned food drive, perhaps even ask in the bulletin the week before for donations. If your church/school already does this, you could collect hats and gloves for the upcoming winter, or gently used jeans to donate. For the Mass, have the kids color something to give out as people enter church, maybe something that parishioners could pin on their coat, such as "Care for each other" or the verse that says "Whatever you do for the least of your brothers, you do for me". Good luck
I have spoken to several pofessionals who have shared that you do not need state certification to teach at a private school. I am pursuing a dual degree in English and Creative Writing. I would like to eventually teach children and later teach Creative Writing courses at the college level. Any suggestions?
Also if they do hire one, they expect you to be making progress towards getting your certification. I've only seen one "uncertified" teacher and it was a part time chemistry teacher. She did not have her certification after three years and was let go.
Unless it is an extremely small school that can't afford better (and hence don't pay worth a darn) I doubt you would get a job. With the bad economy I don't think you will find a shortage of certified teachers competing for the same jobs.
My suggestion? if you really want to teach see about getting into a teacher education program. I took my teacher education through and adult ed program. It took about 18 months and all my classes were night classes. I continued to work up until I had to student teach.
