If only the state helped those who went to school for teaching and passed EdTPA and spent time doing that yet struggled with the Praxis exam since they were not great test takers.

In order to get more teachers/substitute teachers into the classroom they need to raise their salary to, or above the national average maybe, they will get more people interested in the teaching profession!

There are shortages in districts that pay a lot. The School Boards are creating policies that make teaching unpleasant. If you change the policies you will get more teachers.

4% pay increase is a good beginning. Do that every year for the next 5 years or so and you might start seeing fewer resignations.

BUT YET I KEEP GETTING REJECTED, I HAVE A DEGREE BUT NOT IN EDUCATION
