A question

by Bill T. NC 6th science and social studies

Oct 8, 2009

I presently teach in North Carolina, but am pondering early retirement at the end of this current school year.

Let me get right to it.

I am interested in both the Greenville and Charleston areas.

Can anyone tell me about some good schools/school districts that are in those areas????

What students? I would be very, very careful. Also, be prepared to work 70 hour weeks as a regular thing, with 80 hour weeks often. This is not new teacher hours, this is All teacher hours.

Debbie That is fine. He worked those kind of hours as a long term sub. He is used to working long hours and it does not bother him. It is the way it is.
