I posted looking for musicians but someone found the need to report it. It wasn't "educational", but many of the posts on the main board aren't either. Guess someone here felt a duty to report it, thanks!!!

Hello fellow teachers. This is my first time teaching financial literacy course. There is no text books, just some very vague objectives. I am wondering other teachers who have experiences teaching this course, could you please share me with some open sources or recommend some good textbook that I can rely on?

Thanks ahead!

resigning

Can anyone tell me what happens to your teaching certification if you fail to give a full 60 days notice? The job I would be taking is not in education (I'm not sure I will be returning education but I don't know if I want to completely lose my license). The district knows I am already leaving in June. I appreciate your help.

ron/nj It has to be something serious to pull someone's license like sexual or stealing. The state can't remove or suspend a license for just not giving the 60 days notice.

Justin They can suspend your license for a year. don't listen to the other dummy.

I've heard about emergency certification. What is it and can I be considered for it. I am three credits away from being eligible of taking the PRAXIS for Middle School Spanish teacher. My district is hiring a full-time Spanish teacher to teach k-8 and still do not have anyone to fill the position.
