[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our school has no shortage of subs. Plus we had several long term subs for teachers on maternity leave. No vacancies at our school next year. Not worried at all.[/quote]

Our school is the same.  This is most schools in FCPS. [/quote]

Serious “Iraqi Information Minister” vibes here. This is absolutely not “most schools in FCPS” - the vacancy list is right there on the website. [/quote]

It's there every year.  Longer than usual but not much, at most schools.

Seriously.  The national teacher shortage is a crisis.  But it's not dire in FCPS, yet.[/quote]

This school year 98% of FCPS teaching jobs were filled. The data is on school board documents online. That is not an industry in crisis. Now, the bulk of those 2% unfilled jobs are in fact in special ed, which may well be in crisis as PP suggests.

But most FCPS teachers are happily hanging onto their jobs. Our elementary is losing a receptionist and one classroom teacher, who is in fact changing schools within FCPS, .....a far cry better than most other employers in the area.[/quote]
