Last week came word that 23 teaching positions in the Cedar Rapids school district were being cut as the district looks to cut the budget. Meanwhile, another state is offering a $6,000 bonus to some teachers. That state is downright dreamy.

If you're a teacher and looking for a move, Hawaii could be your dream job! Hawaii currently has a teacher shortage. What?! Yeah, I know. Hawaii has 1,600 vacancies to fill before the next school year starts this fall. The problem is getting teachers to stay. Now, you would think having a job in paradise would be easy to find teachers... not so.

The average teacher salary in Hawaii is $56,000, and the state is now offering a $6,000 bonus to teachers hired in special education, secondary mathematics, and secondary science.

So, if you're getting cut in the Hawkeye state or are just looking for a change of scenery, visit the Hawaii State Department of Education website for more information.

Remember, there's no snow days in Hawaii.
