I am currently thinking of applying for CA teaching license to be part of the school system hopefully next school year. I have being searching on their website and all I could find is that as a 1st time applicant in CA schools I must mail my application. Is this correct? Is there no place to just apply online? If it is please share it.

Is anyone else so sick of the student behaviors that you’re applying for jobs too? This isn’t what I signed up for. I get the kids had trauma from the pandemic and even continue to do so.

I applied for another job earlier in the summer, and they just got back to me wanting to do an interview this Friday (our first contact day). It's a great opportunity, and I would LOVE to do it, but we start school next Thursday. Should I tell my principal that I have the interview? Or would I wait until I know if I have the job? If I don't get it, I intend to keep teaching, but if I do, it will be at the worst possible time!

I see major changes needed in order to keep our education system from imploding. It is a bubble that will burst if we just keep applying temporary fixes to patch problems.

But I don’t get the transfer. And I’m told that competition was steep. Everyone at the school I want to transfer to are surprised. I get the impression that many people applied. In fact I’d be surprised if there was a lot of people applying for this position. I am so frustrated.
