[nobe-l] introduction and seeking an advise

Thu Mar 3 04:01:44 UTC 2011

Hi,
Yes they do hire part time in public schools; probably not as a teacher; but 
you could be an assistant or after school staff person to watch kids.

Some kindergarten classes may hire part time aids.

Thank you very much for your response, regarding children schools, I was
thinking about part time job. Is that possible  to hire part time in public
schools?

Also, I tried to do some research   on blindness services for kids in
schools, and found that there's  an educational county center, I don't
remember exact name, that provide those services such as Braille, mobility
instructions. On my understanding it has to be  work requiring travelling
through over a county.
