French-English dual-language programs are booming, and need teachers : several job announcements

Two new French dual language programs opening in New York City in the Fall. The schools are both in Brooklyn: PS 110 (Greenpoint/Williamsburg) and PS133 (Parks Slope/Gowanus). It's good news! Both will start a French-English dual language program (50-50 Model) in September 2011, starting with grade K and adding a new grade each year. Finding great teachers is key to the success of these programs.

If you are interested or know of someone who is interested please ask them to forward a letter of application and resume to:

Dana Raciunas (PS110) at draciun@schools.nyc.gov

Heather Foster-Mann (PS133) at hfoster@schools.nyc.gov

Other French dual language teachers are also needed at the following schools.

The program, most likely, will also be recruiting for a permanent position for the fall. The applicant should be bilingual, bi-literate, NYS certified, NYC licensed. Experience preferred.
