Thank you to those who replied with advice. dovrosenbam, I don’t really need to explain my choices, but it is a special needs public school. Most of the children I work with are nonverbal, so nivul peh is not a problem. I don’t teach evolution or gay rights, mostly how to answer yes or no and express if they want to eat, use the bathroom, feel sick, etc. They seem more than happy to be taught by me, as I provide a fun, caring atmosphere with lots of sensory enrichment. They neither know nor care what religion I am. To the person who wondered why I took the job without knowing what would be with yomtov, it seemed obvious to me that if I wanted this job it would be better not to discuss this topic until after the job was offered to me. Nothing is perfect, especially job opportunities, and every job will have its drawbacks. It is not easy, but that is why we call it work.
