Is the DODEA still hiring for the new school year? My husband and I applied back in October. My husband and I have both received one referral for the same job, but no interview. Is it still a possibility to be hired for 16-17? Thanks!

cars

by what kind of cars are in the teacher parking lot?

Mar 11, 2016

What kind of cars are in the teachers' parking lot at your school? I can always tell the commitment of the staff to their students by the makes and models of cars in the parking lot.

ARAMCO or DODEA

by just wishing

May 8, 2015

OK - the Aramco conversation has me thinking. If given the choice which would people choose and why? I am leaning toward ARAMCO for the salary. Thoughts?

Even with credit card debt and student loans we are able to live very well, do some traveling and bank money every month.

If all you care about is money then by all means shoot for ARAMCO but be aware that it is apparently even harder to get into than DoDDS. As others have posted I enjoy the financial benefits that come with DoDDS but I am truly thankful that I do not have to live someplace like SA to make it (and that I LOVE where I live, not just find it bearable).
