Missy is one of my best friends. We met online, connected- soul to soul and then met in person and spent time together at NAR. We have spend hours on the phone talking about politics, homeschool, religion and real estate.

When I found out that her husband got his pink slip there was nothing but peace that filled my soul. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that this was meant to be. He will get his dream job in Tennessee. Please, if you know anyone in Tennessee that is looking to hire an excellent teacher pass your info on to Missy so she can get his resume in the right hands.

God uses angels to do a lot of his work, and we are those angels that are called upon many times to work his miracles and his will. Thank you!

Pinked SlippedTuesday my husband was given a pink slip from Belleville High School. He is history teacher and social studies teacher. He is tenured.

I was shocked

The schools in Michigan are handing out a lot of pink slips including: Flint 257, Detroit 600, Pontiac everyone, Lansing 170.


Last year at Belleville High School, (where he teaches) they didn't let enough teachers go so in October after the enrollment count they had to redo classes.   Mike was not one of them.

When they change the class sizes some students go and some classes are dropped and it is disruptive. So this year they are letting 90 go and then hiring back.

If you are pinked slipped and hired back you can still be let go in October after the enrollment count.

Can you stay unstable?

 

 

I don’t want your sympathy but your advice, prayers and help.Boo hoo

I want to see if Social Media (which we all hail) can get my husband a job.

 In Tennessee

Most of you know I am from the South and we have hoped to move back there when we retired if not before.

So I am asking you if you know anyone in Tennessee, the Nashville Area to please pass along my husband’s name.  We have looked and there are 5 History teaching positions available in the Nashville, Williamson County Area, which he is applying for.

However, it is not what you know but WHO YOU KNOW.

A little bragging:

My husband is an outstanding teacher. Every year his classes fill up and if a student is removed for scheduling issues…mom and dad demand they be put back in Mr. Caulk’s class.

Mike does all of his lesson plans on Power Point, uses YouTube and the news this week by Uncle Jake.  He is a fun, and an engaging history teacher. Making the subject  come alive for his students. 

Everyday at school for 5 years, he would check out the over-head projector so this year, the administration bought him one.  I can count on my ONE hand the days he has missed in the last 6 years, even returning the day after he had stints put in his heart. 

Social Media is more than Twitter, more than FaceBook it is like attending a Chamber of Commerce meeting that extends outside four walls.

Can Social Media help find Mike A JOB?

They say if you want to adopt a baby tell everyone you know. So I am telling everyone I know.  Any help would be so appreciated, especially if you know anyone in the Nashville area that teaches, a principal or works in Administration. ( If you do I will email you his resume.)

When one door closes, another one opens so we are thinking and hoping this might be an open door to move and settle in TN. First of all we are believing God will open a door if we are to move forward with a job in Tn.  But, we know He works through people, so hence my appeal to you here on Activerain.

I figure if Jay McGullicuddy can find his birth mother and Brad Andersohn his brother,....

ALL things are Possible on Activerain.

I'm trying to think of anyone I might know in that area with connections to the schools.  So far no one comes to mind, but I'm not giving up.

Pink slips for teachers! This is absurd. Who is going to teach our children? So much for job security!

Look for the superintendents of the school system since they hire the principles and they are a little higer up they might be more in the know.

I wanted to thank you for sharing this.  I do not typically follow Missy's post but I have certainly seen her name around AR.  I also know that many people respect her based on their comments.  Without you sharing, I would not have read the post.  I then went to her blog and ReBlogged the message myself.  Hopefully her husband will hear something soon.

I wrote you last early this A.M. and stated I would feature your post as a prayer request.  The commercial break of A.R. took over before I could and you did not receive my message either...Sorry...I am doing so now, and we will be praying for Missy and her husband too.  Thank you for letting us all help.
