ripcords 0 #1 February 3, 2004 I was wondering how many school teachers are active skydivers. I am also specifically looking for any school teacher that skydives and lives and works in the Southern Hemisphere. I figured that the forums of dropzone.com would be the best place to locate any if they exist. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kramer 0 #2 February 3, 2004 I'm pretty sure peachsouthern is a school teacher. You're screwed on the Southern Hemisphere part of things though. -Kramer The FAKE KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!!!!!!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanuckInUSA 0 #3 February 3, 2004 She's not a DZ.COMer, but I know one teacher who was getting her "A" here in CO last summer (she's now in upper state NY). Try not to worry about the things you have no control over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eiley 0 #4 February 3, 2004 I'm sure there's plenty of school teachers who skydive. However if you mean those who also post here...

Cajones 0 #10 February 3, 2004 The lovely and talented Ms. Lewis is in fact a middle school algebra teacher. She has one class of 6th graders, and two each of 7th and 8th graders.

VanillaSkyGirl 6 #12 February 3, 2004 I am an apparel designer, but, about five years ago, I decided to work more with children. Since I have a BFA, I only had to pass a few tests and received my substitute teaching credentials fairly quickly. I then began to teach in a couple of well-known private schools as both a full-time assistant teacher (who was actually given "head teacher" teaching duties after few days) and, after that job, as a very regular substitute for kindergarten through 5th grade. (Technically, I can also teach adult school, but I enjoy working with the young children, who are learning to read.) I found it to be a very rewarding experience. My first love still remains design, so I felt the need to not become a permanent teacher and to return to design full-time. One day, though, I may decide to settle down as a teacher, again.
