I posted a reply that is not visible yet, and I'm not sure why. I just wanted to clarify that I am not a liberal from California (LOL), a felon or a twit. The link to the Florida statutes is irrevelant to me. I am eligible to teach.
Florida statutes apply to all of those living and hoping to work in Florida, so they are not exactly irrelevant. If you report honestly that you have had a criminal arrest, charge and/or conviction expunged, you may (or may not) be eligible to teach.
And criminal histories are not all that are assessed. How you present yourself to others matters, as well. If your application is not automatically tossed on the reject pile due to your criminal history, your attitude could contribute to your rejection. The "twit" in you is showing, in other words.
("irrevelant," by the way, is not a word)
