[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LOL @ those suggesting subbing. Substitutes are paid less and treated worse. Also once they find out you are capable and licensed they will keep you in a substitute position and never hire you back on as a full time teacher. OP needs to leave education field entirely.

This is if she can’t find anything by next year OR finds something PT and wants to supplement income.  My public school system (not in DMV) pays subs well and you can pick and choose so say OP is working PT remote and can pick hours but wants some extra income then the can sub on some days as well.  It’s not a permanent solution but in case they need it!

I changed careers I worked overseas as a humanitarian aid worker for decades worked up to a Country Director.  I was totally burned out as it was literally 24/7 every r&r and vacation I was called back or had to cancel (I worked in war zones) so I came home and wanted to change careers.  In the interim of doing consultancies for non profits and NGOs I subbed in schools.  It gave me some income and let me pick when I wanted to work while giving me the space to figure out what I wanted to actually do- which for me meant going back to grad school.  I changed fields and love that I am with my kids and family.

Good luck OP! [/quote]
