[quote=Anonymous]Website has more than 3 job listings.

And they have this one:

"Elementary Grades Homeroom Teacher (Math/ Science focused)  (ability to relate well to 6-9 year olds)"

Kind of a weird single job posting which is calling for teachers for First, Second, Third, and Fourth Grade?

I've seen this same thing at other schools.  I think the schools are literally trying to downplay turnover to parents by fudging things a little bit on the help wanted board because they know parents are looking at the careers page to assess turnover!

Even if they want to evaluate good candidates for multiple spots, there's no reason to aggressively downplay the fact that you have lots of openings other than trying to obscure the facts for parents and deflect blame for the school.

It should say:  Wanted, First, Second, Third, or Fourth Grade Teachers.  Single application to be considered for multiple spots.  But it doesn't say that.  It says Elementary Grades Homeroom Teacher (singular).

Bad marketing for candidates but perhaps good marketing for keeping the parents off your back?  [/quote]
