Best ways to root out the red flags in a teaching job interview and a school tour? I'm finally ready to get back to the classroom but don't want to end up at another toxic place where admin doesn't look out for the teachers at all. I know to avoid places where janitorial stuff is being ignored or other health and safety issues, but this is only my second interview (worked for 10 years at my old school, left during covid). TIA!

Hi I am a new teacher intern hired yesterday. I will be teaching second grade. School reopens on Aug 17. I do not have my own materials. I do not know what materials are there in my classroom. What should I buy? I will be talking to the Principal on Monday to find out more. I am very excited and nervous at the same time. Any tips and suggestions for me would be helpful.

This upcoming year our school district is trying early release every Wednesday. I find it difficult to cover all the standards in a high school math class, and now I am concerned with having to modify/reduce our curriculum. It will take 10-15 minutes out of the period on Wednesdays. Do you think it will change what we can teach? A colleague suggested a flipped classroom. I teach in an affluent area that only spent a couple weeks remote learning for all last year. Thoughts on flipped classroom?

I feel like in our school they are asking more and more of aides and other staff with no certification (beyond HS diploma). Don't get me wrong I don't mind helping out but we are the lowest paid position in the district, why are we asked to fill in for everyone else with no compensation? Ive subbed in classroom and special areas... um even uncertified subs make more than me... admin insists this is happening everywhere and we need to be flexible... but is it really?!?!

I am leaving the classroom.

I don't want to manage so many humans at one time, anymore. I'm considering working remote to be able to travel more easily and figure out where I want to live and what I want.

Is there anyone who has left the classroom or the education field? What jobs were you able to transition into?

So my ISD split me between a HS and a MS that recently reopened. I'm the only MS band director. The MS decided, without consulting me, to use the band hall as a classroom and after school enrichment "daycare". AKA added desks and tables. How do I approach this? I feel it is not OK in the slightest. I feel the band hall should reflect the goals, discipline, and culture of the program. Not as an empty classroom.

What are your thoughts and opinions?

I’m talking to someone that I have a really strong connection with. We’ve been texting frequently and video chatting with plans to meet up IRL in June. I’m still interested in seeing what else is out there, just because we’ve been talking for two weeks, so I redownloaded the dating app. If you were in this person’s shoes, would you be upset if you or your friend saw the person you’ve been talking to on the dating app? Feeling guilty for being on it, but we haven’t met up IRL

For the people who earned the SHRM-CP, did you feel it was worth it? I have an indirect HR position, been applying for more HR focused positions and wondering if this would help. I got the CAPM (certified associate of project management) in December, but that hasn’t really changed things. Would love some opinions before working on another certification!

I would love to hear success stories about attorneys who have quit firm life, taken a non-profit or government job (including a 20-30k pay cut) and didn’t regret it. I am so over firm culture. My fiancé and I would still have a comfortable combined income but I am worried I would miss the extra cash. I think I know deep down this is what I need to do but I’d still love to hear success stories!

I have a very poor manager and I have the opportunity to give her some formal feedback every quarter. It’s supposedly anonymous but she doesn’t have many direct reports so she could probably figure out who said what. I have declined doing this before because I fear retaliation, but I am wondering if I should state my case because she is truly terrible. What would you do?
