[quote=Anonymous]OP, your solution is a simple one: Substitute teaching. Go through the paperwork and hiring procedures, attend the orientation, and then you can choose only to work at your kids' school and you can even customize which jobs you will accept. And if you aren't comfortable having your own class at first, you can limit yourself to instructional assistant jobs. Those are tough jobs, but at least you are not on your own. (Just know that the pay is very low...less than $15/hour) But this way, you only work when you want to. And when your kid is sick, you don't take a job that day and no one cares because you aren't letting anyone down. Plus you get all holidays and summers off and obviously don't have to worry about staff inservice days as you would if you were actually employed part-time there. It will add a couple hundred bucks to your HHI, get you out of the house doing something worthwhile, plus you'll know what goes on inside your kids' school from a different perspective. EVERY SCHOOL DISTRICT in the DC Metro area NEEDS substitutes![/quote]
