What model is your school in SC using to evaluate continuing contract teachers? I am still being evaluated by a Goals Based Evaluation model.
I have read horror stories about the Danielon model andMarshall model being used in other states.
Are any of these being piloted in SC?
Can a person with a 13 year old non violent felony conviction who is certified to teach in New York State work as a substitute teacher in South Carolina?

I know Jasper County School district is one of the worst in the state as far as achievement and growth. I'm interested to know though what is it like to teach in that district. Anybody out there ever taught in this district? What are the pros, cons? Are teachers supported by admin?

Now to be fair and honest there are things I could have done that would have made it easier for me to be hired as far as having all my ducks in a row. Also there are black people that teach and work in the system even the former super was a black woman. But if you look at the majority of the schools as far as who is working in Greenville County Schools they are vastly white!
If you are not a black person born and bred in South Carolina, I believe the chances of getting hired hear are slim to none. The whole job market here in general is about who you know and who knows you! If somebody's best friend, uncle, daddy, grandpa, next door neighbor,or good ole' spot the dog in the doghouse can't vouch for you, you will have a very hard time getting hired here.
Then on top of those circumstances add being black ( especially a black male) and your chances of being hired just got 100 times harder. That has been my personal experience and what I have seen here. Most black people here live on the poor side of town in the poorest neighborhoods, some in very segregated neighborhoods. I have even had a black entrepreneur tell me, "It's racist here". The racism is not overt , it's hidden. They will ask you to come in for that interview, smile and send you home with a "we'll be in touch". This is typical of the whole county wide system, not just the schools. Equal opportunity is a pretense hear unless you know someone or are a "token". While Greenville County may have wonderful schools and the city is safe and beautiful, if your black, think twice before coming here.
Don't be fooled and don't make the same mistake I did.
