I am a first year teacher, and I really enjoy the district I am teaching at. I would not mind teaching there another year, but I would much rather be close to my home town. Plus, the pay at the school district is very low for the state average. So I am looking to move closer to my home town and make more money.
Now the problem is, I don't want to turn in my resignation without knowing for sure that I am going to get the type of job that I want. However, I must sign my contract by the end of March in order to secure my current position. I am afraid this however would take me out of the running for any open teaching positions close to my house.
So how hard is it to get out of a teaching contract in Missouri if I find a new job and already have a contract signed with my current school district.

Your contract should have this information. It varies by school. I don't live in Missouri, but my contract states that if any party (me or the school) feels like it's not working out, we can give a 30 days notice. That's it. Your contract should state the conditions of it being broken. Good luck!
