I have been looking in the Albuquerque Journal, APS and Rio
Rancho websites online. Unfortunately, no one is really
hiring yet. I've seen a few things in this week's Sunday

can give me.

Thanks in advance.

October after the 20-day student count.

Try NMREAP they post many of the school districts in New
Mexico. Also, if worse comes to worse, they are begging for
teachers in Arizona!! Best of luck you!

I want to thank all of you the encouragement. I have been
telling myself that it’s still early but I started freaking out
last week. I will definitely look at other places other then the
Albuquerque area, but I hope it doesn’t come to that. I’ve been
abroad for a while and I really want to g...See More
