=(HELP) Need help from G1-6 classroom teachers = Topic: Classroom Teachers¡¦ (G1-6) Perspectives towards School-Based After-School Programs
Hello, dear G1-6 teacher!
I am now a graduate student who is working on the Master¡¦ s educational capstone research. My research topic is ¡§An Internet Survey of Classroom Teachers¡¦ (G1-6) Perspectives towards School-Based After-School Programs in the U.S. and Taiwan.¡¨ I planned to invite some G1-6 classroom teachers in the U.S. and Taiwan to help me to do an online survey. However, I am now encountering serious problems that need your help. It¡¦s now the holiday week and it seems like I am not having enough participants to do my survey before the survey deadline (12:00 PM, SAT, 26 Nov 05).
Please take a few minutes now to visit the following URL to help me and your district to evaluate the school-based after-school programs!:

If possible, please also provide me some chatboards¡¦ URL that G1-6 classroom teachers in the U.S. often visit. I¡¦ ve already posted it on a couple of websites to ask for these teachers¡¦ help, but only very few of them helped me with the survey after they read the message.
Hello, I hope to move to the Wilmington area to attend U of Del for my masters, but I'm wondering what the market there is like for a first year teacher with a B.S in elementary ed with an ESOL endorsement. I've heard horror stories about there being no jobs in neighboring New Jersey and Penn.
I am a Wilmington, Delaware teacher. Here is my advice that I can give you. Put applications into the school districts offices. Then, send your resume and cover letter to the principals. The principals in most schools do the hiring, so if you put the resume in their hands it makes their lives a lot easier. I got several interviews, and I was told because that my resume made it to their desk.

My name is Amanda Larkins, I am 26 years old and I currently live in Edinburgh, Scotland, UK. I am interested in coming to Delaware to teach in the elementary \ special needs department of a school. I hold a Bachelors of Arts in Learning Difficulties \ Learning Disabilities and I currently completing my teaching certificate in Elementary School Teaching in the UK. I have a few questions to ask and would really appreciate any information \ advice available.
As this is a beginning of my looking into this can you tell me what qualifications Delaware is looking for from their prospective teachers? As stated before I do have a degree in Learning Disabilities from a British University and in addition I have been working with learning disabilities for the past 2 years.
Another question I have is how should I go about looking for a position as a teacher? Especially as an international teacher? Are there websites that I can search for positions? Does the State of Delaware hire international teachers and work with the applicants in getting them a visa?
As stated above as well any other information you can provide to me on the subject would be very helpful. I really dont know where to begin?

Public education in Texas is in BIG trouble! We have a politician in Austin who is from Arlington, and is the head of the education committee. His name is Kent Grusendorf anf he hates teachers! He blames teachers for his son's suicide, and has been punishing teachers since he was elected. If he gets re-elected, we will lose our continuing contracts. We'll also lose our 22-1 class cap for K-3, and our 30-minute duty-free lunch (I never knew those existed until I came to Texas!) He supports vouchers, which as we all know takes money from public education. There is a lady running against him this year who has a good chance of defeating him. Her name is Diane Patrick. Early voting for this primary election is Feb 21 - March 3, and the regular election is March 7. We have it on good authority that he plans to initiate a nasty smear campaign against her just prior to the primary. Those of us who care about our children are asking that voters who live in District 94 call, write, or email their friends and family to ask them to vote for Diane Patrick. We're even asking those dyed-in-the-wool, straight-Democrat-ticket voters to, JUST THIS ONCE, to vote in the primary, vote early, and vote for Diane Patrick. If you have friends or family in the Arlington, Texas, area please forward this email to them and ask them to help us defeat Kent Grusendorf. Thanks, and have a great rest-of-the-year!
I am from Nj, currently received my teacher lincense and I am wondering do I have to take another test in Delaware to get hired by a school district. I saw some schools require you to take the Praxis 1, I really dont want to take another test. Please let me know what to do thanks
Contact the Department of Education for the state. I have dealt with them on several occasions, and they have been very helpful and patient. I think that NJ and DE have an agreement that if you have a license in one, then you can get a license in the other.
