[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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]

Disagree. It’s 100% dire in special education in FCPS. Like, not sure how this can possibly work next year dire.[/quote]

Okay, it's dire in special education, as noted in the reddit thread.  But in any given FCPS school, it's not dire.  In many schools, it's no different from any other year.  [/quote]

There has been a change to the way positions are posted this year which makes it look like there are fewer vacancies at schools. Multiple vacancies in one category used to have an individual listing for each vacancy. Now there is only one listing. For example, my school has 3 vacancies in 4th and 3 vacancies in 5th - 6 vacant positions. However, there is only 1 position listed as ES 4-6. I have confirmed with friends that it is the same practice at their schools, too.[/quote]
