If you've always thought about being a teacher, here's your big chance! 🍎 There's a massive job fair Monday and you could walk away with a job offer. 🏫
They're working together at a time when so much political rhetoric, out there paints public schools and specifically teachers in a light that's not the best. It's something the districts say they're addressing head-on.
"Because of all that rhetoric going on outside our schools and even sometimes in our board meetings, it’s important for NCTASA and public schools to demonstrate how important public school is and the teaching profession is," said Brenda West, Executive Director of Human Resources, Highland Park ISD.
With so few college graduates majoring in education, especially at the secondary level, schools are looking for career professionals to come into the classroom. "I kinda wanted to do this all my life and honestly couldn’t afford to," said Steve Coy, who recently retired, and then applied and was hired as a teacher in McKinney ISD.
Alternative certification programs are out there to help people transition into a role in the classroom. District leaders say many people started substitute teaching during the pandemic as they lost work and then realized how much they enjoyed the profession, they're hoping others will do the same.This article tagged under:
