Has anyone ever had an evening job, like 6-10pm, or something similar, with a company willing to sponsor an e2 and then received permission to work at a public school during the day? i have emailed SMOE as to whether or not this is possible, and am still waiting to hear from them. the school has said it is legal, a recruiter for SMOE said its not legal, so I'm trying to reach SMOE directly.

It would seem to me like it would be ok, as long as the school sponsoring the e2 provides paperwork to immigration, giving permission to work a 2nd job. The recruiter I spoke to said that the the company who sponsors the e2 must be your primary place of employment, which also means that you must be working more hours there than at the public job (which would not be the case in this situation). anyways, any info is appreciated. thanks

Yes, you can have a second job as long as your primary employer allows it and you have permission from immigration (it's a matter of filling out a form and paying 60,00 won). The only condition on it is that you must work more hours at your primary place of employment than at your secondary place of employment.
