[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it is funny that someone actually believes that there are a bunch of black teachers not getting hired by white principals or black principals or purple or any color principals.

And what about the new college grads?

Young black people are just as capable as young white people in knowing that teaching is not a good profession to go into because the pay is low and you're treated like dog poop on a shoe by parents.  If you're graduating from college right now, you don't go into a profession like teaching, you follow the money and you go into professions where your work will be valued.[/quote]

I think the real problem is that many NA neighborhood Elementary Schools do no have a very diverse teaching staff. More specifically Tuckahoe, Cardinal, Nottingham, Jamestown, Taylor....but others probably know better.[/quote]PP, you DO realize that you're exactly the type of parent who is the problem, don't you? That it is the people like you, always creating drama and lashing out, that make the teaching profession undesirable? If you, and people like you, would stay in your lane, perhaps more people would want to be teachers. As it is, I find you embarrassing with your virtue signaling.[/quote]

Most of the diverse teachers at these schools left when Spanish Specials were canceled.  [b]APS could do so much better[/b]...many of these students will not have a diverse teacher until they get to middle school.[/quote]
Again, this isn't soley an APS problem, there are teacher shortages, the vast majority of teachers are white. What do you want them to do, force diverse teachers to go to the North?[/quote]

Just take the easy way out...nothing to see here.  Not my problem....pass the buck.  This is decades in the making and nobody really cares.  [/quote]
We care but we’re drowning, my sped classroom has been down an assistant all year, third grade has been without a permanent teacher for 3 months. WE CAN’T GET ANYONE[/quote]

Are you in APS?[/quote]
