I'm interested in making a career change. I currently work
at a biologist and am interested in teaching biology or
general science. Is anyone here familiar with the ARTC
program?

I am going to take the Biology Essay exam for the second
time. I would love any tips or suggestions. I am very
confident I know the content. However, I feel the exam
readers do not like my writing style. Does anyone have any
suggestions?

Does anyone know of any potential Spanish or English job
openings for the 04-05 school year? Thanks!

Does anyone know of any job openings in the Wilmington or
Claymont area elementary schools? Any help you can give is
greatly appreciated.

Hi all,
My husband and I are teachers from Berlin, CT. Rob
recently authored his first book and several school
districts across the country are using it with their kids.
It's titled, A Winner by Any Standard: A Personal Growth
Journey for Every American Teen and it promotes all the
ideals upon which future success is built—e.g., optimism,
gratitude, self-belief, a strong work ethic, a sense of
wonder, humility, originality. Any word of mouth you can
spread would be greatly appreciated as #1, it can empower
young people and counteract popular culture and #2, the
literary world isn't set up to accept/assist a
schoolteacher with no national platform from which to
promote. You can learn more by visiting

Closing the Gap/NCLB/GEAR UP: "From High School to College,
Boarding Pass to Success," book that will motivate Latino,
African-American, other minorities and underprivileged
students and help them to succeed in High School and in
their race for College.
Information is power; sadly, even today, in the high tech
information era, we can see that many kids (minorities or
not) in low-income neighborhoods do not get beyond high
school basically for lack of information and motivation.
Both inspirational and informative, this book traces the
successful journey of a first generation Hispanic family in
what represents for them "the land of opportunities," the
USA, and their struggle to bring their children into Ivy
League universities against all odds. If these children
were able to do it, every child that follows their path can
succeed. By encouraging the goal of getting a college
degree in order to have a better life and to give a better
life to your own kids, by showing that caressing a dream
that can come true, that pursuing a goal that can be
reached will definitely make a positive impact in their
lives.
The story is complemented with practical information: A
five-page detailed chart, "The Landmarks Along the Road,"
that shows, step by step, what needs to be done throughout
the four years of high school, indicating not only
deadlines, but approximate starting dates which will allow
students to complete each step on time; an extensive list
of useful URLs of sites with free practice tests, and a
section on how, and where get funding for college.
Since the book details, step by step, what they need to do
in high school to prepare for college, it can be assigned
as a required reading in the summer between middle school
and high school, or in the summer of the freshman year,
when they still have time to close the gap so no child is
left behind.

There are a couple of ways in which you can encourage your
students to read the book: including it in the reading
lists, so they buy it and read it, designate some of
the "Gear Up" funds to purchase it for the minority and
low income neighborhoods kids who cannot afford it.
Should you need further information, please do not hesitate
to contact me.

Hi Julie,
Thanks for your response and for your vote of confidence! When
you were at Brandywine, did you know of anyone in the ARTC
program? I guess I'm trying to get a feel for how rare it is
and how willing school districts are to hire someone who does
not have a teaching degree. I do have a degree in B...See More
