[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Re: hiring good STEM teachers, I think aside from the pay, there needs to be a way to get STEM skilled folks trained to teach without making them get an Education degree.[/quote] If you happen to be at last Tuesday’s MCCPTA meeting, you’ll see Dr Taylor insists on no possibility of hiring of new teachers because of budget limit, and he doesn’t believe training is needed either. He claimed that many teachers had been having multiple certificates and “they are significantly under-utilized”. [/quote] Well that’s delusional. You can’t teach what you haven’t learned yourself, and a lot of these subjects are specialized. Which existing teachers are going to teach the “health care and medicine” courses? (Honestly I’m not sure what that’s supposed to be at a HS level other than bio and chem.)[/quote]
