It took me several years to get hired by mcps despite my degree being in demand. I ended up contacting somebody in the central office department that oversees my job field to help advocate for my application to get through to the pool of applicants

If they need a long-term sub it might be because the regular teacher is out on leave

Yeah they were trying to make budget cuts and then temper it with figuring out how many people were going to retire but I think they underestimated how many people wanted to get out

Yep it is leftover scraps and a raw deal
Yeah very few of these are full-time (volleyball coach, paraeducator etc.)
No, we're talking about full time teacher positions. There are 80 elementary, 50 middle, and 32 high school full time teaching positions currently posted.
that doesn't seem that way when i search. i barely see any FT elementary school positions.
I see 28 as of now.
Plus 15 long term subs.

For those saying this looks better than last year, some of this is strategic on the part of MCPS. Special education teacher and SLP caseloads are unreasonably high—with no possible way to meet all of the legally required hours. However, by keeping those caseloads so high, it gives the false illusion that they aren’t as short staffed as they really are.

It's only for a month, and it's teaching math, which isn't CES-specific.

If you don't want the spot, I'm sure someone else will happily accept it.
