[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am wondering if the gatehouse people are focusing on filling these positions over the summer? Is this a top priority for them or are they more focused on trivial matters?[/quote]

They aren't as focused on filling positions as they should be. It should be the very top priority and anything else that isn't essential should be shelved until they address it. Re-allocate money, cut non-classroom positions, and do whatever else it takes to attract teachers and retain the ones who are leaving. This is a problem everywhere. 
I can also tell you that vacancy list isn't complete. Our school is short three positions in different subjects that aren't even listed.[/quote]

At this point in the summer it is too late for any big initiative or budget changes to hire because majority of available teachers have already been hired. We had 15 teachers leave my school this year and all but one already had a job lined up the the next year before school was over. Schools have been able to hire people since March. The only thing that I could see working is go to states where they had teacher cuts and recruit them and pay moving expenses [/quote]
