[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good luck with the teacher shortage.
Teaching these days sucks due to no accountability for kids and parents and no attendance rules. If you remove or weaken benefits, I imagine even less people will be attracted to teaching. Especially since teaching is 100% in person while many jobs have switched to 80-100% remote.

Last year, my kid had a terrible long term sub for the full year for physics because the school could not find a physics teacher even though they had been looking all through the summer months. It was a completely wasted year for my kid in science class. We need to figure out how to attract more teachers to the profession [/quote]

Teachers are paid reasonably well.  They are not paid equal to the profession they majored in but they are also not working in that field.

Teachers need to partner with interested parents.  When we reach out it's rare we get a response back so as parents we cannot support the teachers if there is a problem and we don't know about it.  We've had one teacher reach out and the issue was dealt with at home that same day.  As parents we don't play around.  You get a complaint at school and it's appropriate you get in trouble at home.
