Does anyone know of any teaching positions?

I feel like throwing up- there is like NOTHINNGGGG out there. I was going to take the position as a pre school teacher (at a day care) but now im thinking I should sub bc then I get myself 'in the system' and hopefully one step closer to a 'real' teaching job- and now i feel its too late for ANY principals to hire.....


Im so bummed- I really dont know how FH and I will pull this wedding off- we are BOTH jobless!




Im sorry ladies for the vent I dont mean to sound annoying!!!

I don't know of any but I understand how you feel. I'm still looking for a job myself. However I don't think it's too late since many people don't retire or quit for a new job until right before school starts since they want to get all their summer pay. Don't give up hope.

i know you probably need the benefits.......but you should def sub! Sub all over district 25 and 26 and you will find something! the money your gonna make in a daycare wont be worth it! i was in your position in January and i know its so confusing!!!!! ( i have a spec ed license so thats how i got lucky ) hang in there! does your insurance plan have a cobra you can pay? itll be worth it in the long run

Re: Does anyone know of any teaching positions?

Can i just make a suggestion. In my experience, and I have a friend who has gone through this, if you sub the district likes to keep you as a sub because they are hard to find. I know you think that it will get your foot in the door but it really doesn't. I would take the job as a pre school teacher and keep applying for jobs. My friend spent 2 years subbing in the same district and they did not give her a job when there were openings. She finally left, worked somewhere else and found a teaching job. So if you are going to sub do not stay for more than a year.

I know it's hard, I feel your pain I've gone through this myself. Good Luck!
