Guest guest Posted November 4, 2000 Report Share Posted November 4, 2000 I'd recommend the Plano school district over Dallas any day. The Dallas school board is a wreck at the moment (hope no one objects to me saying this). Plano schools have a great reputation. I also think schools are good (Plano and border each other). Do you know anyone here? If not, call me when you get here and I'll see if I can help somehow! (972/423-4906).

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2000 Report Share Posted November 5, 2000 I am actually really glad to hear that. I have made some calls and seems to be the only district (North Dallas area) that will have openings mid year. Thanks for your input, this will be a big adjustment!

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2000 Report Share Posted November 5, 2000 I would be glad to call Plano ISD and see what I can find out for you--would just need to know preferences--grade level, subject area, etc. I doubt certification will be a problem--have you contacted the TX Dept. of Ed. to see what you will have to do to get TX certification?? When I moved here from Rhode Island, I had to take certification test in my content area. I would imagine all districts will have openings mid-year, they just may just not know it yet!! There is such a teacher shortage here, I don't think you will have any problem finding a job. Let me know what I can do for you! Khierholzer@... wrote: > I am actually really glad to hear that.
