Hi I am a teacher from Ohio..currently in Nevada, and I am interviewing with a recruiter next Sunday for a position in Hawaii. Over the past few years, I have looked at Hawaii schools but this is the first time I saw openings for English teachers. I moved to Las Vegas from Ohio almost 2 years ago, and so I am hoping that I have the chance for another final move to Hawaii. I decided to post here after reading for a couple hours.
I will be moving with my little man who is 5 (assuming I receive an offer). He loves the ocean and keeps asking me "when can we move to the beach mama"? LOL kids are so amazingly open and excited about life.
I've been doing some research about the education system and life in Oahu...especially in the Leeward side because of the high needs schools. All my experinces have been at at risk schools with kids who need more support and oppurtunities to learn. My recruiter mentioned Pearl City and Ewa for living becuase I would need to be within 30 minutes or so from the hospital. My son has Cystic Fibrosis and there is a specialist at the hospital. He needs maintence check ups every few months.
So any thoughts on areas to live in on that side of the island? His auntie might come with us (she is 18) and wants to attend college for nursing or forensic sciences. I know cost of living is much higher, and so since material things are not a major thing for me I am ok with it (I think..lol). I am actually truly thrilled at the possibility, but this move is defintely a life-changing decision!
Please feel free with comments and ideas...
