[NMScience] teacher needed

[Steve Kaestner]

Hi,

Jefferson Middle school in Albuquerque recently put out an ad through 
APS for a teacher.

What we need is someone who is endorsed in science and math (or possibly 
just in science).  The position is for a teacher of the gifted.  You DO 
NOT need to be special ed. endorsed.  You do need to be willing to 
complete gifted teacher training (4 3-credit hour university classes 
within a two year period).  On the downside, you might be floating into 
another room to do labs and you would need to do IEP's for 24 kids.  On 
the up side, you would likely teach fewer than 50 kids (over 6 periods). 
This year the curriculum for science is the 7th grade life science 
focused one.

If interested, apply as the APS career ops advertisement indicates 
(search special education teaching jobs).

I teach gifted science at Jefferson, and you would be taking some of my 
students.  If you have questions you think I can answer, let me know.
