My family and I are moving to ND this summer. I am totally excited about the move. My husband has a job in Bismarck. We will be moving to a small town somewhere around there. I would like to maybe make some online friends before the move. I have tons of crazy questions.?. Like is it hard to find an elementary teaching job there? How big are the class sizes? etc....

She was my first grade teacher in Flaxton, ND in 1961. I would like to find out where she is. I am now a teacher in North Carolina and she is the reason. She lived right next door to us.

Mrs Eugene Mach is my mother and I emailed her this page.
I teach in Los Angeles and have done some sleuthing online as far as North Dakota schools. Not only is the pay very low but the benefits are not as good from what I could see. I expected that to some degree but my pay would drop by 20,000 dollars a year and I would have to pay benefit premiums which I don't have to do now. I still would like to make a move to a state in this area. Can you recommend a higher paying district with better benefits? Thanks.....
You are in your 13th year and only make 54, 000 dollars? I am in my fifth year in Los Angeles with no masters and make that now...that is crappy pay for New Jersey
