Very low chance of getting a long-term sub for these positions. More likely a rotating cast of daily subs.

That’s what happened at our school this past SY, but it was only for about 3 months.

This is bad.

There’s still the whole summer to hire someone. Please don’t start panicking now. Summer just started.

I’d imagine the only actual teachers available this summer are a few who might be moving from out of the area due to their spouse’s job. New grads were hired months ago and transfers have already been placed. That leaves nobody to fill the vacancies except subs (and good luck finding them!).

July is the tail end of the hiring season. Principals have been able to hire since March so majority have accepted jobs. It’s really only about a month and a half until school starts. New teachers have great beginnings (orientation) August 5 and teachers are back in school prepping on August 12th.

I guess you’ll just have to keep blaming the new principal then, won’t you? Because that’s clearly all you want to do. (Psst - no one is buying it.) Have a nice, relaxing summer, if you can with all the worry about vacancies.

Unhinged much?

I buy it.

Not as many left with the interim principal

Few will leave with an interim principal because they know it’s interim. They will wait and see who comes in.

+1 this is usually what happens when there is a new principal. Have you all never been through a principal change before?!

No. I think many would have stayed if the old AP didn't leave. That was the good AP too.

On the contrary, I’m very relaxed. I’m happy with the new principal and look forward to new faces in the fall!

You should volunteer your kid to be in the class that will start the year off with no teacher since you are so relaxed.

Worry about your own kid - otherwise you are just fear mongering.

That makes no sense. How is it fear mongering if there are so many open positions and it is almost July? It is plausible that not all will be filled. Get your head out of the sand.

Why don’t you wait and see what happens come August 19 before freaking out? Do you have any summer plans?

No one is freaking out but it's normal to not be so laissez faire and hope everything works out. Do your summer plans take over your entire summer?

I don’t spend my days worrying about how many vacancies are at a specific school at the end of the year, no. I have confidence our admin will get them filled come August 19 and I will be back here then to say I told you so. Have a good summer and maybe try a Xanax.
