Thanks for all the replies! I haven't taken the Praxis subject tests yet but I intend to this spring before enrolling in a practitioner teacher program in the summer. From what I'm hearing, I might as well take it in physics, chemistry, and math if I have the background to do so. I've got a Master's in an interdisciplinary field so I have the hours in each of those three subjects. I feel much better about my prospects for getting a decent job after hearing from y'all, so thanks again!
Do you say that because of the students or the administration?

Edit: I mean that wrt WBR vs EBR.
Alright alright very funny y'all. But are any of you actually teachers? Or just assuming since education is rated so poorly here it should be a low bar to get a job? I want to know about turnover rates, budget cuts, etc. This is a good forum for local stuff, so... I'm listening.
I'd like to teach high school physics but am a bit wary to begin the certification process without having an idea of job availability. Those of you in the field, do you know how often positions open up? Would I have a hard time finding a school in the Baton Rouge area to do my first year teaching concurrent with the practitioner's program? Thanks!
