Hi

I'm from MI, can't get an elementary job jere unless you
know someone or get down and dirty with someone. We have
hundreds and hundreds of apps for one position. How is it

myself.

Thanks!!

I doubt this person is going to say where they work exactly, that
wouldn't be a good idea on a public board, I work in the panhandle as
well and find the working conditions to be "not the greatest", as well
as the pay and health insurance, compared to our neighboring states.
But we are a neglected part of th...See More

Does anyone out there teach ICP in high school? If so, I am
interested to hear about any ways you have really

needed to devote to each subject in the classroom according

this info at? I...See More

Elementary positions in Bloomington, IN??

by jenny/2/oh

Sep 22, 2007

/blockquote>

We are discussing moving to Bloomington next summer as
hubby may attend IU. Any idea how the elementary job market
is in Bloomington?

I am certified 1-8 in OH, but not sure what certification
(grades) are offered in IN. I need to look into that.

Thanks in advance!

Check out corporations in the surrounding areas, as there is
probably not much in Monroe County. It's an easy drive to
Spencer, Martinsville, Bedford, or Brown County.
Bloomington is a lovely town; I'm sure if you decide to come
that you will love it.
Best wishes...

I am trying to move to indiana from michigan and want to
know how I can get my certification to transfer over? Is
it an easy process? Is it better to look for teaching jobs
in indianapolis or in the suburbs?
