Education & Reference - 29 January 2007

I am very strongly considering going to school to become a teacher. I am currenlty finishing up my MBA and considering completing a elementry teachers education program afterwards. The program will allow me to get endorsements to teach grades 6-9 in addition to elementry education. I have four children and one has severe autism and epilepsy; being a teacher would give me the hours I need to be with my family.

For those of you who are teachers....do you love your job? Would you recommend your career for others? My son having a disability has caused me to fight for much of his education...I don't always agree with how the school system does things. But I am still interested in a career to teach a little bit older students (3rd -8th or even high school). Please give me any and all advice.

When you are writing lengths in short form, you can note feet and yards with tick-marks. For example, 1',6" is one foot six inches. I am marking out yardages of fabric, and I would much prefer a one-symbol mark than having to use the letter abbreviation every time, but I don't know if there is a yards mark in this set. Is there a standard symbol for yards, or only the "yds." abbreviation?
