Oh, maaaaaaaan. I really had such a good day subbing at LN today! OH MSDLT PLEASE GIVE ME A JOB IN YOUR SCHOOLS. I love them. I love them

I wanted to let you know that my supervising teacher at Bishop Chatard is going to another school, so they will have an opening there. Also, I believe my high school principal, Steve Bryant, is the principal at Greenwood. I can tell you what he's like and (hopefully!) help you prepare for an interview with him.
I'm curious...are you purposely not applying to teach in Martinsville for a specific reason?
Here's my Martinsville advice: it's an amazing high school with a stellar record for academics that happens to have just as many racist people as any other town in Indiana.
So...if you have socially conscious trepidations about M-ville, you can talk to me about them...
I'm not applying because it's the middle school, actually. :)
If the position were for HS, I would definitely apply anyway, any socially-conscious trepidations I might have aside (although what MBL has told me about looking for adequate housing in Martinsville was also sort of discouraging). But seriously? For some reason I cannot fathom, I just fucking hate middle schoolers. And they seem to hate me too.
One of the English teachers at North taught at Greenwood and said she had to leave because she found the other English teachers to be overtly racist so much so that it affected their teaching...
apparently I had greenwood and greenfield confused. I mostly liked the idea of greenwood because it's so close to Indy. But apparently teachers are crazy in both Greenwood and Greenfield. WHY OH WHY.
What I really, really want is to get one of the charter schools. [crosses fingers]
