Will public school teaching jobs be available in the future?
What do you think will be the long term effects of this economy and the nationwide budget cuts affecting school districts? Our teachers are having to donate money to the district to offset the cuts to an already small salary budget. Positions are being cut, teachers are taking on other duties for no extra pay and classes are being combined. Do you think the damage is permanent or will teaching jobs still be available in 5, 10, 20 years? I've finally gotten my foot in the door at college and my teacher education started and now this...
There will always be education jobs. But the "good" ones will be very scarce this year.
I know our principal has already indicated that our district may not be hiring very many "new" hires.
You just may have to travel to other areas or look into getting experience in areas that are usually less desirable to teachers (i.e. inner city/very rural).
And make yourself shine shine shine.
That being said, I think that everything is cyclical - and what comes around goes around and there will be times when there will be teaching jobs aplenty.
