You cannot be considered a certified teacher. You are a certified teacher or you are not.

Passing the subject area praxis should be a minimum requirement for a teacher residency in MS or HS.

OMG, how are you a teacher? They passed the praxis, they are certified teachers. Learn how to comprehend what you are reading!!!

A teacher who has completed the praxis and other requirements for a provisional license is a certified teacher and is paid on the teacher
scale. A teacher resident has only a requirement for a college degree before starting and after that one year to complete the requirements for the provisional license and will be paid 48K. A sub is a short term job paid hourly.

HR

Thank you for showing up and saving us from the same conversation on repeat!

HR, IAs make less than 40K. Have IAs been moved to Teaching Resident job. Or IAs mostly not have a college degree. If IA have college degree can move to the new job?

Many IAs haven't yet completed a full teaching degree. IAs that have and that want more responsibility could switch to teaching resident job.
But teaching resident has to put in a lot more work and have a lot more responsibility--both on the job and then meeting the requirements for licensure after the year.

Thank You. If IA have any college degree IAcan become Teaching Resident. Teaching resident can take any college degree for the job?

Yes, they meet the minimum eligibility. That doesn't mean though that they will get hired for the job. There's an interview process and they need to be a good fit for the teaching openings available.

Interview was less than 10 mins virtual on Aug. 11 Asked available start date. That’s about all. IAs with a college degree should apply for the job since they also have some experience which is not even a requirement.

My child's ES has two teacher residents listed in the directory - both of whom are recent college grads and upon googling also appear to be the children of teachers, so that is at least promising, they'll have help!

How do you know??

It listed right next to her name in the school directory. "Teacher Resident"
I googled her. She has a 2021 undergraduate degree in theater. So someone who wanted to be an actress, realized it's impossible, and is now trying to teach without a teaching degree because it was an easy job to get. Can't wait.

So? Remember when you were all piling on teachers during the pandemic, telling them they had to go in "because the kids don't catch it", telling them they should quit if they didn't go in and any warm body would do a better job, and then accusing them of being pedophiles and groomers? How much abuse did you think people would take for 60k a year? They listened to you! You bought it, you own it now. Enjoy!

This. In 2020, at the worst of the pandemic pre vaccine, I exasperatedly asked a hypothetical question about whether these angry parents would rather have an unemployed, totally unqualified mouthbreather who couldn’t cut it as a Target cashier “teach” their kids in person rather than an experienced, qualified teacher virtually and was met with a ridiculous cavalcade of “Yes!!” “100%!!”

Cool. “Enjoy,” indeed.

Well, from most people's POV, virtual school has zero value so it could be the great poet society guy teaching it and honestly? Wouldn't matter. No one is learning especially in ES.
So yes, school with a moron teacher is better then no school at all.

ummm ok lol

There's really nothing funny about a Sophie's Choice between school with an idiot teacher and no school.

My kids got a lot out of virtual school. Also I was mature enough to realize it was a pandemic, and schools were doing what they could under difficult circumstances.

So did mine and plenty of other people's kids I know, but these people are so invested that since they couldn't get their kids to succeed in virtual learning, it was "impossible." Nope.

We didn't HAVE " no school." We had "no buildings." Schools were open for business. Try again.

Same here. I was satisfied with the instruction that my child received, especially given the extraordinary circumstances.

No one I know was "satisfied" with FCPS during the year schools
were closed.

Schools were not "closed for a year." Buildings are not education. And you must have whiny, entitled friends (shocking), because I knew plenty of people who were satisfied.

OMG, can you people that are STILL hung up on virtual school that started TWO YEARS AGO please just get over it. Get on with your lives. School has been in person for quite some time now.

Curious: Are the parents of the teacher residents teaching at the same school?

It’s been what, 17 months or so since they went back into the schools?

I have a full dual licensed teacher on my team who is not cut out for the job. And a new resident who is very great to work with so far!

Well the actual teaching hasn't started yet, right? That's where reality will sink in. A resident teacher eager to learn may seem great to work with as a colleague until they try to manage their class. Hopefully it will all work out for them. And of course there are plenty of licensed teachers who are not excellent teachers--like all professions there is a spectrum.

Is this job still avaialabe

The only issue with the teacher residents is they aren’t actually working yet because of HR. So major coverage issues at schools.
