It allows teachers to put out there what they need and ask for donations for their classroom for those reasons. This widens the audience that they are asking and also allows them to continue to do great things without being strapped because of our poor economy and the government's inability to fund schools properly. <a href="http://www.donorschoose.org">Donors Choose</a> Theda,

Good luck! Hi Chris,

Unofficially it may be difficult in your town, but once you get certified you can go anywhere you like. It sounds like you won't be 'outed' since you're not hiding who you are (congratulations!). But hetero teachers have to be careful with being alone with students of the opposite sex too. If you want to teach, go for it. If you get a master's degree too, the pay is quite decent. And a lot of teachers make extra money in the summer months working elsewhere, and working extracurricular activities during the year. Good luck with whatever you choose!

I come from a family of teachers, so I know there are definitely benefits, but I'm not sure if it's for me too. We'll see. Thanks for the comment. I like subbing, but it was hard work.

I trained to be a teacher and started and just did not care for it. The need is great for good teachers, and kudos to each hard-working teacher out there!

I'm a freelance writer and I've been trying to figure out how to find a decent paying job that I don't have to work everyday so I can still have time to write. Subbing might be the way to go. Guess I hadn't thought about it before. <em>Chris's last blog post..<a href='http://homesecurityguru.blogspot.com/2008/02/wireless-security-systems-basics.html'>Wireless Security Systems Basics</a></em> Very good idea.

But I live in a very conservative town. Many people know me and that I'm gay, and was a bit promiscuous in my youth. I think some parents would strongly object to me teaching their teen-sons. I know It's silly, but my fav teacher was forced to move when he was "outed". Plus, I could see some of my students reading my work (book or blog). That would be bad. I also wouldn't want to be in that place where some one could accuse me of anything, simply because I was alone with a male student. It has happened here. My home town thinks it's liberal and GLBT friendly. But when the chips are down...They show their true colors. But if non of that applies to you...Then you should sub if/when you can. Teachers are heroes! They should be honored for their hard work and dedication in field that pays nothing and gives no rewards or promises of fame. <em>BadEvan's last blog post..<a href='http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/badevan/~3/239730614/'>My Broken Heart Wont Heal</a></em> I’ve thought about teaching/subbing.
