She told me if I completed certain classes, I could potentially get reimbursed from them, and I should contact her next year and they'd be willing to hire me. All in all, a bit disappointed, but also a bit relieved. It was a pretty big life decision to make, and even though I was going through with it, it was still pretty nerve wracking.

I plan on completing the classes, and next year revisiting the situation, while giving myself much more time to plan for this. Best of both worlds if you ask me.

If you don't want to move that far from Ohio, West Virginia is dieing for teachers in a number of schools. Especially math and science. They don't pay the greatest but the cost of living here is much lower.
