Seeking: School where teacher didn't show up

[Anonymous]

Seeking any opening! Tenured K-12 teacher. Preferably PE or health. Anyone?

Are you the same PE teacher who posted this thread, who was having trouble getting a job with MCPS? https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/1149711.page

Can confirm.

Does it have to be MCPS? There are several vacancies in Fairfax across the river.

I think you should start subbing to get your foot in the door.

You can't just teach PE in MCPS without a dedicated physical science degree, they make it really hard

Did you clarity as to why MCPS isn't moving you forward? I think you should figure the answer to that out before just applying to whatever openings pop up.

Crickets from MCPS. Any advice on how to find out why?

Thanks! Doesn't have to be MCPS. Looking across the river, too.

Have multiple (applicable) degrees including health and physical science, tenured teacher. Why is this so hard?

Have you taken the PE/Health Praxis for Maryland? Have you called your references to be sure that they submitted your reference forms? Have you been invited to the HR for a screening interview?
