Hi everyone, I am very new to all of this and use this site to learn as much as possible. Concerning schools, I rarlely hear about teachers experinces at Schools from the US State Department. (the listing of schools from overseas) I hope I am making myself clear on the schools i am speaking of.
I was offered a job with one of them in Guatemala, Guatemala city.

http://www.state.gov/m/a/os/

Why is there little discussion on these schools?
The job i was offered is 22,000 US, 1 year contract, ect. My only concern is the saftey there.

But back to my main question, are these types of schools just difficult to obtain jobs or what?

Any replies would be great.
Thanks

Schools operated by the US State Department in other countries are there to promote the US image--and that means promoting the image of George Bush and following the party line imposed by "Condolences" Rice. If you really want to be a shill for the US government, you can command a much better salary than that!
