Was wondering if anyone else in Lake County was having trouble securing sub jobs. I am new to FL, but am retired teacher and subbed in another state.
Anyone else know how to get around those annoying "dings" which lead to "I'm sorry. There are no available assignments at the moment ..." Just this morning I opened my phone when it dinged, went right to Jobulator/Aesop calendar, and - Gee, Whiz! - no job there. I will probably not pay for Jobulator, since I've had to pay for my fingerprinting, drug test, and computer course justg to get to be a sub for Lake County!
Has anyone found the trick to these programs? Aesop is ALWAYS open on my computer; however, I can't be with it 24/7. That's why I really look forward to carrying my phone EVERYWHERE and waiting breathlessly for it to "ding."
>...See Morevisit your local schools and let the office staff/school secretary know that you are available. if you go to church or are in any community activities, fitness programs, etc., talk to teachers.

Just got back from France and visited two schools in Aix en Provence....found out French Elem. Teachers make as much as teachers plus free medical...a great pension without contributions and a 3 week vacation for Christmas. Children well behaved...

No one here. The only republican teachers are the ones who aren't on the internet and savvy on the issues. Ostriches with their heads in the sand/ignorant types vote republican.
Kellye Taylor, 53, a teacher at Huntington Academy in Long Beach, Calif., was fatally stabbed in the back Friday as she was watching her students in the park for what the school calls "Fun Friday."
Some of the two dozen kindergarten-to-sixth-grade children who were playing at the park witnessed the attack, the Associated Press reports. They ran back to the school, which is across from the park, to get help.
“How could they do something like this in front of these babies?” Pamela Huffman, Taylor’s younger sister who also works at the school, said to the Long Beach Press Telegram. “All I could do was run to her. I saw her slip away. I knew she wasn’t going to make it.” A few teachers also witnessed the attack, CBS reports.
Soon after the fatal incident, officers arrested Steven Brown, 50. Police said Brown was the father of Taylor's grandchildren and was upset that Taylor had custody of her grandchildren, CBS reports. Family members said they didn’t think Brown, the alleged stabber, was capable of anything like murder.
Just curious to find out what amounts other counties are getting. Lee county is getting $1700. Please email back with your county & your amount. Thanks!
The Collier County School Board voted this week to give all teachers a 7.25% raise, retroactive to July. At last, the union stepped up to the plate to make this happen.
