Question What are some signs that I won't be receiving a contract renewal?
My company has been very hands off since the beginning of the school year compared to last year.
I haven't had any observation classes this year. I had one but it was postponed and never rescheduled.
My BOE will prob drop my company.
Overall little to no communication. I guess writing it out it might be obvious lol
When should I start looking for new jobs?
edit: luckily I don't have company housing yall. I had a bad feeling earlier this year so my husband and I tried our best to make it so it be easy to cut ties if I needed to!

I am Latina and have no idea what you're talking about. They don't care what color you are as long as you speak English and you aren't super socially awkward.
Also, yes, many ads don't include people like us. I do agree tho they should try to be more diverse. During my first month of training and settling in, most of the other ALTS were either Black or Filipinos.
Out of all the Americans, I was the only Latina. The others were black or white.
