@AF you set yourself up, idiot. I believe the special ed certs that is for sure. The only thing you proved is that you have a severe inferiority complex. I'll bet you know teenage girls, old pervert.

jealousy rears its ugly LIEberal head and you are right not all are in core subjects two are in special education and gifted and talented, the others are just math/science, social studies, computer science, nothing really big. I don't think you have ever set foot in a classroom because you know nothing about why kids come to alternative school and where they come from. Once again (and for the last time) I have proven you to be a fraud. I do know the acronyms because I know teenage girls and they speak more intelligently than you do.

@AF oooh big man holds 5 state certifications...not in core subjects. Let me just say if you can get 5 certifications then anyone can. If you are an example of public school teachers, then its quite clear why our kids dont learn and why they are in Alternative schools. You speak of competence like you have any.

The trouble with you is you know nothing and are proud of it. I still hold 5 state certifications for teaching but I will never go back because the use of ridiculous methodologies and pedagogy has replaced competence in the teachers ranks. I also taught at an alternative school so I am pretty sure I could handle the kids better than you. You were probably one of the ones who ran screaming and crying from the classroom or were too scared to teach at the middle/high school level.
