I am a soon-to-be UF graduate in Music Education, relocating to the Fort Myers area. I am applying to the Lee County and Collier County school districts, and am wondering if anyone around this area has any job search advice.
As a teacher in another state - I am looking at all candidates running for president. I know I can't vote for Bush because he was a major player in hyper-testing and CC. But - what about Rubio? What was his record there on teachers and education?

Any and all Republicans are anti-teacher and anti-public education. You need to be deciding between Clinton and Sanders. You're voting against your interests considering a Republican.
I am thinking of moving to FL from GA to teach elementary school. However, if it is the same as GA, I do not want to. Does FL focus on small group instruction, only? What is it like? Thanks!
Florida is not a teacher friendly state. You will be on annual contract for the foreseeable future. The republicans favor charter schools and I truly think they are trying to privatize education. In your case, I don't think the grass is greener on our side.
Hello! I am thinking of moving from GA to FL to teach. I am disappointed at how much GA focuses on the workshop model for every aspect of teaching. Is it that way in FL, too?
Have you found a good resource for studying for the middle school english cert. test? I am certified in Spanish but want to be available to support other openings.

I just used the study guide that's for the test. However, I have a strong ELA background and already had my master's in Reading.

It's disappointing to see so little action on the board with so much going on. It's our profession, our lives, and the powers that be want to take it away! We are sitting idlely by and letting it happen!
Has anyone taken the new version of the FTCE English 6-12? how different is it from the old test? Not much study material out there, not sure what to study.
I took the exam on June 1st and got an unofficial pass on the multiple choice portion, I am still waiting for the essay part, which I heard can take awhile.
I only studied the .pdf from the FTCE site. While it was not easy, if you keep in mind what is best for the student- even if not your style but you can tell that they are looking from the student's perspective- you should do fine.

At a loss, stressed. Type A personality. Failure is not a word in my vocabulary! My county has a grant to help study. Applied and was accepted. Will repost when I retake for third time. Teacher retention being low is no surprise considering this test is NOT easy to study for or, apparently, to pass.
