From August 2020:
I have to ask why I do not have a full-time teaching position yet, is it...
-because there are quotas and districts must interview a percentage of candidates outside of the immediate area/district with no intent of hiring such individuals?
-because hiring is based on budget not on the right candidate for the job: educated, experienced, and certified
-because recruiting is not done, only hiring over the summer months hence little to no time for interviews, spouse notice at his/her employment, student record transfer, home search, moving, etc
-because of my age?
-because I am not originally from here or there?
-because I did not graduate from the school district?
-because I am not related to anyone in the district?
-because of the amount of experience I have?
-because of the number of certifications I have?
-because I am a 2nd career educator?
-because I am a parent?
-because I care too much?
-because I continue to seek out learning?
-because I advocate for better?
-because I grew up in central Troy (8th street)?
-and because I believe in equity for all children?
Why?
