Greetings CD Family,
I am currently teaching in Florida and I am considering moving to Jacksonville. School is about to begin and I realize that I need a change of scenery, I am hoping to get information on how to begin the process of visiting the area, schools to apply to and areas to live in. I am being proactive as I don't plan to make the move until next year however I do plan to visit during breaks throughout the year. I am certified in Reading, ESE, ESOL, Ed Leadership and HOUSSED in Elementary Ed K-6. I prefer middle or high schools. I have worked in all types of schools from Title 1 to schools that are very well off so I am versatile. I am essentially wanting to know how to begin the application process and what I should look for when I visit as well as the schools that have poor reputations. Any help is appreciated, and anything that would be helpful as I prepare for this new endeavor.
P.S. I really think this forum is a great benefit and am really glad to be able to come here for information
