Do they now say-never mind we have 3 openings again lol


So what happens if there are sped and counselor openings? What happens to the kids that need services? Do they just go without? It's not like they can put a sub in those positions.


I believe with counselors the other counselors take on the case load, meaning even more burnout for the remaining counselor.


+1, our school was supposed to have two counselor last year, and they only had one so that one counselor did all the work resulting in us almost never having lessons for the entirety of the year.


Good. Their whole group lessons usually suck anyway.


Your experience is not the same as everyone else’s experience


Wish they did more about bullying.


DP. Our counselors did a great job addressing bullying and working with kids who were bullied. A lot of administrators want "restorative justice" and refuse to give consequences to bullies even when they're repeat offenders. No wonder there's a lot of counselor positions open.


I'm sure there are unicorn schools where admin supports their staff but honestly most teachers and counselors feel like they are on an island by themselves. Not a good feeling and the pay is not in any way an incentive.

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?


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.


Looks like I was right - all vacancies are filled and it’s not even August! I told you!!!


Uh oh Navy you are back up with multiple vacancies!

Not often discussed here but check to see if your school’s health room is fully staffed. Likely a new hire or contractor LPN with plans for spotty substitute aide coverage. If vacant responsibilities fall on front office trained back up who believe me doesn’t have the time.These positions are filled through the health department and since Covid have been extremely difficult to staff.

Critical to determine and understand though if your student has a chronic health condition, needs daily meds and or anaphylactic allergies.
