FMLA is legal and u have a right to take it... Get a lawyer...they cannot fire you over this...u weren't even offered FMLA which is a right you have tenured or not. You can sue them since they gave you the days off...get another lawyer, it would be well worth your time since you're union and everything. good luck!

You need a bachelor's with 30 credits in the subject you want to teach, 6 specific education credits which you can get from many Ohio colleges, and a passing score on the Praxis II math exam. of course you need fingerprints, trans...See More

Governor's Proposal and Teacher Tenure

by Ohio Teacher

Mar 17, 2009

Will the proposal to make it easier to dismiss teachers with tenure effect current teachers that already have tenure....or only teachers who will be granted tenure in the future??

I ask because I do not have tenure....but I work with a woman who would be fired if it wasn't for tenure. Complete and utter incompetence.

Thanks!

pksped The question is not what you would make with that particular licensure; the question is in what school district you hope to teach.

Click this link, and go to the "collective bargaining" link on the right hand side. You'll see the master contracts of most Ohio public schools and other agencies (though some contracts shown aren't the most c...See More

pksped, who did the math....wow! Comparing the same school districts that I mentioned in my previous post, I would lose $2669 if I went one district over, and gain $3957 if I went one district over the other way. (And I could have earned that with M+15, instead of the M+30 where I am now.) And neither district is even close to any of the Big C's, Dayton, Toledo, or any other large...See More

allison The one by OSU is called Teach Ohio. It is an all-day event. I went last year. It is a bit overwhelming but I would say that it is worth the experience if anything.

Does anyone have additional information about the one in Dayton?

Jennifer Ankney If you go find teachohio on the OSU website, there is a PDF file you can download that tells you who's coming and what they are looking for. I went last year, and got some interesting prospects. I'm in the Cleveland/Canton/Akron area now. Anyone know any districts hiring drama teachers?
