Q: Will your school hire black people?

We had a great candidate apply to our school. She was experienced and ceritified. However, she was not hired because the administration believed the parents would be turned off by hiring a teacher that is not white.

Yes I'm black and the school I work at now hired me. But only after getting denied by a long list of other jobs. I would encourage the great candidate to apply for other jobs. I know a public school that is fine with hiring black teachers. Although I'm not sure if the position is still open it was open about two weeks ago but could have been filled by now.

We have two black teachers. One from London, the other from the US. Both are good teachers and respected by parents and students.

Our school is hiring a black teacher in March. I think things are slowly changing!

nicholasba:

no they wont. so as for most chinese a laowai wont never be able to master chinese king fu, so when it comes to blacks, their native language for most chinese  of course is african (even if the guy never went to afrika) so as every white guy can speak english.
