I have an Ohio teaching license and was wondering if anyone knew how to get another license from a different state? Is it easy? I'm going to get laid off after this year and Ohio does not look too good for job hunting. Can anyone tell me how to go about getting a new license from a different state?

Is it possible to add K licensure to my 1-8 license without getting a second Master's Degree? I know they have a supplemental 4-5 for the Pre k-3, but what about adding K?
– Niagara University is now accepting applications from K- 12 teachers nationwide for a summer program entitled Crossroads of Empire: Cultural Contact and Imperial Rivalry at Old Fort Niagara. The week-long residential sessions, which take place July 11-15 and July 18-22, 2011 at Old Fort Niagara and Niagara University, have been made possible by funding obtained from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH).
Directed by Thomas A. Chambers, Ph.D., chair of Niagara University’s history department, the workshops are focused on the vital history that emanated from Old Fort Niagara, one of most significant and well-preserved 18th century historic sites in North America. Fort Niagara served as an important crossroads between the empires of Great Britain, France, the Haudenosaunee (the native people who inhabited what is now much of New York state and surrounding areas), and, later, the United States as they battled each other for control of the North American continent. The Fort threatened American territory during the Revolution, was occupied by both sides during the War of 1812, and then a peace treaty secured the Fort and region for the United States.
This workshop will immerse NEH Summer Scholars in the world of 18th century life, from both the Native American and European perspective. Participants will interact with historic interpreters, clamber about ramparts dating to the 1700s, handle beaver pelts and trade goods like fishhooks and beads, and perhaps even fire a musket. One unique feature will be an overnight stay at the French Castle, the three-story stone fortress and trading post perched above the crashing waves of Lake Ontario that dates back to 1726. By week’s end NEH Summer Scholars will understand the perspective of the Iroquois people who first inhabited this region, as well as the struggles of ordinary European soldiers who bled and died to control Fort Niagara.
Teachers of grades K-12 at schools in the United States or its territorial possessions, or Americans teaching in foreign schools where at least 50 percent of the students are American nationals, are eligible for this program.
Teachers selected to participate as NEH Summer Scholars will receive a stipend of $1,200 at the end of the residential workshop session. Stipends are intended to help cover travel expenses to and from the project location, books, and ordinary living expenses.
The deadline for applications is March 1, 2011.
For eligibility and application information, please call 716.286.8091, e-mail [email removed].

I am currently a substitute teacher in Akron with a B.A. degree in history wishing to become licensed for either middle grades (4-9) in reading and social studies and hear there is an alternative licensure process. Doers anyone have any information?
Another thing is what are some Ohio teacher employment websites you use to find teacher openings besides the ODE, OHReap, College Career Center and the individual school districts websites? Please share websites you use to. I have a teaching license and I have been trying for years to become employed as a Language Arts Teacher, but nothing. So silly for thinking I could be more than a waitress.

to Dianne: In 1986& 1987 Ilived in the West park area of Cleveland. At the time it seemed that the only way for me to get enough subbing jobs was to sub for the Cleveland Public Schools I don't know what the situation is like today. I think I was also on the sub lists for Lakewood and North Olmsted. I hope that this helps. Linda Schnur
