Elementary Teaching Jobs in Ky

by Tara

Jan 15, 2009

I graduated from college a year ago and I have been unsuccessful in my job hunt. Has anyone heard what the job outlook for elementary teachers is going to look like next year? I'm willing to relocate, however I'm not finding much out there.

Unless you are willing to do spec ed and possibly get a masters in it...its really hard to get hired in an elementary job. If you live near a border state like WV its easier to find a job there.

Are schools needing Science teachers?

by Looking

Mar 8, 2009

Hello,

Due to Florida educational system turmoil, I would love to relocate to Kentucky (I lived in Murray as a child). Would someone please suggest a good place (low crime, low pollution, good-to-great high schools with few discipline issues) for a 40 year old Physics teacher to settle down? I would appreciate any assistance.

Rita/KY My dad was the biggest Wildcat fan ever. He never missed a game on T.V. and got to watch them play at Rupp Arena many times. My mom got a little jealous at one of the last games he was able to go to. He spotted Ashley Judd in the audience, and according to my mom spent the rest of the game watching her! :)

cost of living? is it reasonable?

by Shari77

Mar 20, 2009

I am considering moving to Southern IN/Northern KY in a year or two. Can I comfortably live on $35,000? This would mean all the normal expenses, plus cell phone, internet, and a movie or two a month.
