AMA request: a former SWVA public school teacher

Hello!

I am one of the moderators of the r/Virginia subreddit, and the primary person who coordinates AMAs (Ask Me Anything) events for that subreddit. The other day I made a post requesting AMA suggestions, and one person suggested I put together an AMA with multiple teachers from different school districts in Virginia.

The initial suggestion was a teacher from a rural district and a NoVA-based teacher. I am modifying this to (at least ideally) try to put together an AMA with public school teachers from a rural, a suburban, and an urban area, which brings me to the point of this post:

If you are a former teacher in one or several SWVA-based school districts, and you would be interested in taking questions from the internet about your experiences teaching, please let me know at this link:

If you know someone who would fit the bill, please send them my way! If it's something that they would need more information about I would be happy to provide it.
