NYC Teachers: Shortage Fair
I am going to the shortage fair on Monday and was given a list of schools who may be there and what they are hiring for.
I was told to do research on the schools prior to getting there.
What should I be looking at? I really don't know anything about the city so I am quite lost.
I think I have narrowed it down to either queens or brooklyn because manhattan or the bronx would take too long of a public transportation commute.
anything else that can help me out?

I work in manhattan and the commute is actually not that bad. I go out of Ronkonkoma and am in the city in usually 1 hr and 10 minutes in the morning. Express trains are wonderful.

Re: NYC Teachers: Shortage Fair
There is a site called Inside Schools that has reviews. If you google each school, it might give you other similar review sites.
Also, look up the schools on RateMyTeacher.com- you may get a feel for the environment based on what the kids say about the teachers and administrators. Though I'd take the info from RMT with a grain of salt- Inside Schools sends a reporter to each school, so that info is very objective.
