1: Now in Chicago!
2: Cambridge is intentionally not on this list, but if you have other suggestions for "not too hellish a (public transit) commute from the Porter/Davis area of Somerville" I'm open to hear them.
3: Yes singular. If you have one that you can get rid of, I'd like it. Ideally the left, but I wouldn't say no to the right. This is because I am hardcore.

on 2011-07-06 05:28 am (UTC)Out of curiosity, why not Cambridge? (I don't know much about any of the local school systems, so I don't have any particular context.)

on 2011-07-06 01:30 pm (UTC)Also, given R's experience, I'd express a word of caution regarding Boston - the schools are SO varied in terms of school culture that it's very administration-dependent, and they're so easy to move between for students that if kids were determined to be trouble, they'd have little reason not to. Even more so than other systems, talk to your potential fellow faculty before accepting. Boston pays well, but it's essentially combat pay. Some of the schools are great, though.

on 2011-07-06 01:57 pm (UTC)Thanks for the warning about Boston. I'll be sure to ask around before accepting anything.
