Ok so for the past two weeks there have been really no elementary positions in the NY Times
I have passed along my resume to I don't know how many people...I have given it to parents at camp who know people in school districts, I have sent it to people my mom knows..etc....And of course my resume/application is on every districts online system...and NOTHING
I am getting discouraged that we are in the last weeks of August and I have nothing...

Did you send your resume to private schools also? I know that it doesn't pay or have benefits like the public schools, but at least it will be a paycheck! Does the camp you are working in have a program during the year? I know that the camps I worked in also ran a school during the rest of the year, you might want to check into that. I am keeping my fingers crossed for you Kathleen!!

Have you considered being a governess for home school kids? I dont know how it pays, but I'm sure their out there. Try a job agency.

Sorry to hear...
I am in the same situation actually. It is very upsetting and frustrating.... I know exactly how you feel.

I'm in the same boat, but I'm not a teacher!!
My cousin works as an elementary teacher in Queens, if you're willing to travel that far, I'll ask her if there's any openings. I know she's moving upstate this month so there might be. Only thing is I think she works in Jamaica.

Although it is August, many people get hired right before or at the very beginning of school...I know in my school we are 2 kids away from having to open a new kindergarten class in which case someone new would have to be hired. Good luck!

Re: Job Search vent...AGAIN!!
when i was job searching i would check here everyweek it was so helpful:
http://www.dowling.edu/mydowling/stu.php scroll down the page under Announcements, and click on current Education Job Openings. They update it once a week... it is usually a compilation of NY Times and Newsday, but sometimes there is a job that wasnt advertised in there!!
