[quote=Anonymous]Not a teacher, but my mother is in FCPS (and has been for over 20 years). Definitely choose carefully for your student teaching placement. I'm not sure if other area school systems have tenure or not (FCPS doesn't) but choose one that doesn't as they're a lot more likely to be taking in more new hires. Most of the new teachers my mom works with either live with roommates or have significant parent/spousal help if they're living by themselves nearby. Most of the teachers I know have gotten their Masters by doing PT programs at Mason, so I think it's definitely a legitimate option. Though most of them didn't do it during their first year teaching. You can also try and become a substitute in your preferred system (I did it in FCPS and it was really easy!) or look at summer camp positions (in FCPS this is RecPac, not sure what it's called in other systems). These can be a great way to get your foot in the door.[/quote]
