Hello everyone! I'm currently on my 7th year as a band director and I've been having terrible years back to back for the last 3 years. I really don't feel like I can keep doing this. I feel like this needs to be my last year teaching. My mental health and physical health are suffering due to the immense amount of stress and pressure I have on me. I had considered applying for director jobs at other schools in my area but nobody is leaving and nobody is hiring. I would love some advice on what other career options I have with my teaching and director experience. Anyone in the same boat or gone through a similar transition?
