I moved to Carlsbad last summer from Iowa, right after graduating from a teacher's college. I have great references, great GPA, and have only got asked to interview for 2 jobs that I am not qualified for. What is up? I have heard you have to know someone to get a job. Has anyone else heard anything about Carlsbad?

I just saw that starting in Sept. that you can add Library endorsment to a NM teacing license just by taking the test also there are some other new endorsments you can add by test only.
I am having trouble locating a teacher salary schedule for any school in NM. I teach in San Jose, CA and I am looking at the Santa Fe area. Any info on how to access a salary schedule will be greatly appreciated.
you are very close to defaming a person on one single use of a pejorative term. as a parent, i would not want my children to learn to be so quick to judge a person. the letter of the law should always yield to the spirit of the law. how can you be so certain that he or she used the term maliciously?

Mexico teachers extend protests By Duncan Kennedy BBC News, Mexico
Protester in Oaxaca, 21 Aug 2006 Protesters took the streets on Monday Striking teachers seized 12 private radio stations in the southern Mexican city of Oaxaca and set buses on fire, as a long-running protest worsened.
They acted after unidentified gunmen opened fire on a government radio station already under their control.
The strikers used the stations to tell parents to ignore Monday's start of the school year and keep children at home.
Teachers have been striking since May to demand higher wages and Oaxaca Governor Ulises Ruiz's resignation.
Roads blocked
The shooting began at a government-owned radio station already in the hands of the striking teachers.
Burning buses in Oaxaca, 21 Aug 2006 Striking teachers set buses on fire on Monday A number of rounds were fired by unknown gunmen, and the teachers say one of their members was injured.
The attack prompted a violent retaliation by the teachers, and a number of buses were overturned and set on fire.
Dozens of the protesters also took over the privately-run radio stations and started broadcasting messages of defiance.
Others armed with crude weapons blocked off some of the main roads into Oaxaca.
A spokesman for President Vicente Fox blamed the state government for attempting to take back the radio station by force.
He said the attack was carried out without consulting the federal authorities and described it as a unilateral decision by the governor of Oaxaca, Ulises Ruiz.
Widening protest
Governor Ruiz has become a key target for the teachers.
Although their dispute started out in May as a campaign for more pay, it has since transformed into an attempt to get the governor to resign from office.
The teachers say he is guilty of rigging the state election two years ago and of using heavy-handed tactics to deal with the strikers.
The governor, who belongs to the former ruling party, the PRI, has refused to step down.
Last week a number of people were taken hostage by activists after gunmen opened fired on a teachers' march.
They were later released.
The protests have also taken on a much wider context and have become woven into the continuing row over who won Mexico's presidential election.
Four months into this round of tension and parts of Oaxaca are starting to look ungovernable, and that could be a real challenge for the country's new leader.
You might want to read a post dated 8/22 about salary schedule from retired CA teacher to NM. You may have gotten the wrong information. The SDE gives you different answers to each question depending on the day of the week and who answers the phone.
If you are making a move with the belief that the information contained in your post is accurate, I would suggest you get in in writing first.
Don't bother applying in Los Lunas or Gallup if you want to maintain your sanity.

I am a graduate student at Texas A&M University, Corpus Christi. I am conducting research for my master's degree in Curriculum & Instruction, specializing in math. Specifically, I created a survey regarding the role of virtual manipulatives in today's mathematics classroom. I am in the process of distributing this survey to as many mathematics teachers as possible. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Below is a direct link to the survey:
