Teaching I believe pays student loans at $5000/year up to a certain amount. I also think you have to commit to a certain amount of time...
I think Texas had some kind of program like that for college grads who worked as teachers in critical needs schools. I'm not sure if it is still going on b/c my roomie - who is an education major - has said that the state isn't participating in it anymore because of the lack of state $$.
