Elementary Teaching Industry in Fort Collins? We may be moving to the area for my job, but I was wondering if my SO would have a hard time finding an elementary school teaching job in Fort Collins? She'd finish out her year where we are now and move there in the summer, looking for a job to start in the fall. I had read about a significant amount of teacher layoffs in 2010 but haven't been able to find much about the current state of things. 


It also looks like based on pay grades that she'd be getting paid significantly less there. She's at about 45k now in Maryland, which would be equal to 40-41k in Fort Collins according to online calculators, but the pay grade is either 36 or 38k.
