It’s no surprise that Atlanta is one of the fastest growing cities in the south! With its plethora of award-winning restaurants, public parks, seasonal events, festivals, and concerts, along with exquisite high-end shopping, you’ll always have something to do amidst working in a great special education teaching position.
Working on a school schedule while living in or near a city has its benefits – enjoy your school holidays and weekends by seeing Atlanta from a bird’s eye view on the SkyView Ferris Wheel, or taste some crazy flavors of a world-famous soda brand at the Coca-Cola Museum. Who knows, you might even see an actor or two when exploring the city, as parts of metro-Atlanta have become a growing location for filming several TV shows and movies.
Though you’ll be working in the city, Atlanta still keeps its southern hospitality and charm. The school districts we partner with will welcome new teachers with open arms and support. Because there are so many sites to see in the city, this could be a great segue into arranging field trips and activities for your students!
