I was able to trace by some pretty incredible sleuthing that the gentleman who was hired for the job I applied for is not certified to teach music in the state of Texas.
He is certified as an EC-4 Generalist and has taught 1st Grade previous to this upcoming school year.
I needed that job.
God will take care of us. That goes without saying.
But what they did was not only discriminatory, but illegal.
I am certified to teach EC-12 music.
If there is a certified applicant, you cannot legally hire someone who isn't.
Oy!

You should report them. what they have done is all kinds of illegal.
well let's look at it this way:
do you still WANT to work for a company whose morals & standards are "questionable"???
It's better to be poor and keep your integrity than it is to be rich and lose all your character!
...trust God IN every matter. Maybe this is the reason He didn't want you there.
Just remember: 1. This is NOT your battle, but the Lords. 2. You have the greatest, totally trustworthy ATTORNEY available. 3. He loves you beyond words. 4. This will not go un-noticed by Him. You do not mess with His children. 5. I love you and miss you so much. I'm praying for you. 6. Rest in His peace and comfort.
I agree. As a lurker on your page, I was very upset when you didn't get the job, especially for the reason they gave you. I instantly said, and I do believe out loud, "That's reverse discrimination!"
I really, really think you should file a complaint or something. Not sure what legal steps to take, but it is definitely unfair. Yes, the battle if the Lord's, but sometimes you have to take matters in your own hands, too. If not a complaint, at least a letter to the superintendent.
You could always go to the paper and see if they're interested in running a story about a crooked system.
