That's quite a commute!

Actually wife was considering this: west va is the place to go for teacher pensions. They are all now impossible jobs but you have to think strategically. Pension was. OST generous after 20 years

If you are a teacher would you recommend working in Frederick County Public Schools? Secondary 7-12.

Would you rather work for Loudoun County Public Schools or Frederick County? Also, a total long shot, but any thoughts about working for Washington county (MD) schools?
