BFrom what I've seen Alabama does not offer paid maternity leave to its teachers. You can use your sick/personal leave days and/or buy from the bank. Makes me rethink having anymore children
Ever wonder what you can do to help change the world? Open your home and family to a high school student from another country and help build bridges of intercultural understanding at a time when the world really needs it.
This year more than 2,700 young people from 50 countries will arrive in the U.S. to study at high schools across the country. Enjoying daily family life, meals together, and community activities will make a world of difference to a young visitor who is eager to experience what it's like to live as a member of a family, school, and community in the U.S.
Host families provide a bed and meals, and the same guidance and support to students as they would to their own son or daughter. Medical insurance is covered by AFS and a small charitable contribution is allowed for each month the student is hosted. Host families and students receive support from local AFS Volunteers. Single and retired folks in their late 20's to 70's, with or without children or grandchildren, make great host families.
Host an AFS Exchange Student and build bridges of intercultural understanding. It's a gift you'll give and receive. Most families have no idea how much they'll gain until they say yes. To learn more, call 1-800-AFS-INFO.. You can also complete a hosting interest form at [link removed].
AFS 'aunts' and 'uncle are also needed, as well as liaisons who volunteer to meet monthly with host families and their students. Call AFS for details. today to reach out to the world and make your wishes known as to what type of student you would like and /or if you would like to be a volunteer. Future host families may request gender, country of origin and/or talents and interest for the new AFSer for which applications are arriving each week. The sooner families request their wishes the greater the chances of AFS finding them the perfect student for their family.
AFS has been hosting and sending teachers and students on exchanges for over 61 years. It is the leading exchange organization in the world partnering with over 50 other countries. It is intercultural, international and a not- for-profit organization.

I am from Mobile Alabama and graduated with my secondary/Language Arts degree in December. I have been working as a long term sub in South Mobile County since January, so I have some experience. Friday 4/10 I am going to central office to finish my teaching file by performing my interview. I was wondering if anyone could tell me what type of questions they ask and give me some tips. I am nervous :) Thanks in advance!!
EaWhat is going on? Where is anyone who actually cares about teachers, be they novice or veteran? Aren't we supposed to care about ourselves? Where is the solidarity and all of that good stuff? Let us know what's going on. We are not alone.
Hi, I am a second grade teacher in North Carolina and we are interested in moving to the Birmingham area. Is there relocation information about housing? A parent told me about a website called Oscarealestate.net that supposedly helps find a realtor. Any assistance would be helpful!
