[Gifted and Talented in Ohio Discussion List]

Greetings!

I am currently hiring retired teachers to teach for our online school
part-time.  The job information is below.  Please pass to anyone who may be
interested.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

At Virtual Community School of Ohio, we are building an army of high school
adjunct teachers to support our fast-growing part-time program.  We
anticipate major growth in the near future and need qualified motivated
teachers on our team in all subject areas.  An *ideal *candidate has
availability throughout the day i.e. retired, stay-at-home parents,
part-time teachers, etc.

Teaching online provides valuable opportunities to both students and
teachers alike.  Becoming an adjunct staff member means you will teach a
course virtually to students all over the state of Ohio.  Our part-time
students take one or more courses with us through their home school.  We
customize each partner school's needs, which provides for greater customer
service benefiting the student.
