Thank you kindly to those of you who have given my things to think about. It appears as though I will have to cross Florida off my list given that I am highly unlikely to be considered against a US citizen of similar standing.

The same will likely apply in the other 49 states too. This isn't a good time to be a public (state) school teacher in the US, given the number who are being laid off due to state budget woes. You do have your subject expertise in your favour, but unless you can find a private school willing to sponsor a visa for you, your prospects of moving to the US are slim.
