Hi ladies! I'm about 90% done with my teacher's certification process and I've currently been offered substitute teacher positions at both Hays and Del Valle ISD. I have experience in Austin ISD but unfortunately I missed their cutoff date for sub applications this semester. I was wondering if any of you have any experience with these two districts and if you would recommend one over the other. I am slightly closer to Hays' schools, but I am concerned that there wouldn't be as many opportunities to sub over there.
Thanks so much in advance!

I know two teachers at Del Valle and they have been searching for other jobs. Based on that, I would go with Hays. However, I don't know anyone with Hays, I just know it's a good school district.
CONGRATULATIONS on almost being done with certification!!!
Thanks so much everybody, I was leaning toward Hays anyway and hearing from you all has been really helpful!
BOB- The Aggie part is pretty much dead on, but the "Daner" part is just a goofy spinoff of my actual name (Dana). I am, however, a SUCKER for big ol' dogs and you can't get much better than Great Danes! Do you have pics of your kiddos you wouldn't mind sharing? :-)
Sometimes I pin stuff

DH worked in Del Valle and now works back in AISD. Del Valle was not wonderful for him. I subbed there and was happy subbing... high school level only. The elementary and middles are all over the place in terms of what to expect and too much to handle keeping track of which was which. And I stayed VERY busy in DVISD.
If you are interested in staying as busy as possible, I would do both.
I don't have any here at work, but I will try to post a few later this week! :P
