Is it better to resign in lieu of nonrenewal in your tenure year? How do future employers view resignation in your tenure year? Given the hostile climate for teachers in 2010, should I just have my school nonrenew me?
Nonrenewal is NOT seen as a black mark these days.
Good luck.

Hello All! I am in need of a Summer Teaching Position. I applied through my district, but I and several other teachers have gotten no response so close to the Eleventh Hour. I know any teaching employment is tight right now, but I'm open to any suggestions. Thanks
Would anyone be willing to share with me possible key points that i am overlooking that I could add to each of these essays to make them longer. Or names of websites that I could visit/articles i could read for more information. Thank you for any suggestions.

On 6/21/10, ...See MoreI would also suggest adding something about the importance of math in today's life. Stating connections between math and every day life for question 2.
For question 3 basically the same idea how math and technology are connected in today's work force and importance of understanding this connection.
Good luck.

As far as being blacklisted, I've heard one of the worst things you can do is get on the bad side of your principal. If looking for a new job, most schools will want your old principals evaluation of you, and if it's not good, you could get blacklisted.

Do they really call every school on your list to see that you have worked there? I don't think so. My sister is human resources person (not for a school district) and she says that she does not call references because she weighs her choices on qualifications. Who cares what other people say about you. Other people don't know why someone badmouths you or praises you. It is misleading on both counts.
Nonrenewal is NOT seen as a black mark these days.
Good luck.
