Just curious. The first day of classes at my school is Friday, Aug. 29.

I think it's bizzare to start on a Friday (but it's K-land so I'm not surprised Wink );and I don't really care because I'm off until Monday, Sept. 1.

My kids come back the 28th. Me - the 1st of Sept - as I don't fly back in from my two weeks in NZ until early morning 29th.
Ahhhh ... home.

Monday, August 25th, but I'm not starting until September 1st. Despite already having agreed taking vacation in the last 2 weeks of August, I bet they wonder why I'm AWOL come the 25th. Yes, I'm sure they will forget I'm not to start until the 1st. I seen my liaison co-teacher last Friday and she mentioned our start on the 25th and was confused when I said no I wouldn't be there despite us having talked about my vacation a couple times before. That will be interesting to come back and they act like they thought I ran off. I just know it.

I had no idea that PS started the same date(s) as Universities. I thought they started later. Maybe it is because I see tons of ads for PS on the job posting forum. Seems pretty late in the season to be posting for teachers.

Yes, but they know they can't possibly fill all the vacancies; so, it doesn't really matter - the hiring process is continuous and ongoing.

I think it's hilarious to read a job advertisement on Aug. 4 that states the applicant must be in K-land by Aug. 25 for orientation... Sept. 25 (maybe).
