OoOoOh I can be helpful. I taught highschool and at the community college system (TCC) in Norfolk/VA Beach area. 3 quick items: If you have the choice, select public over private or charter. If you're a military spouse, that means nothing to hiring committee outside of you having an expiration date for the job you're interviewing for ( so leave it off your cover letter, etc). Traffic is a bear, and, regardless of what your gps says, you will need an hour to get to your campus in the morning. Anything else I can help with, please feel free to shoot me a DM.

Interesting. The wife (not a teacher) recently considered taking a job in VA and we (me being a teacher) were wondering the same thing.

I moved from teaching in Texas to teaching in Virginia, and I love it. I don't teach in Virginia Beach, though it is a great area so I can't speak to that specific place. But teachers I know who are there do love it.

A parent of one of my students told admin she thinks it's irresponsible that I won't be grading over Christmas break. I let the students know to get any work they need graded in before the break and I'll get it to it during our workdays in January. Apparently that's not fast enough for her 🙄. Is it wrong that I'm sort of pissed off by this? Should I say something?
