H.R., a physical education teacher in West Contra Costa who works on a short-term J-1 visa, said he moved his family from Mexico to the U.S. three years ago to work at one of the district’s high schools because he felt it would be safer to raise his daughter in the U.S. H.R. requested to use only his initials because he doesn’t want to jeopardize his ability to apply for the H-1B visa in the future.
“My biggest reason [for moving] is my daughter,” he said. “Me and my wife decided that it would be a good chance for her [and] a big opportunity to learn the language and to grow up in a different environment.”
H.R. can’t apply for the H-1B visa because he missed the deadline and West Contra Costa Unified is now unlikely to pay for his immigration fees. After his visa expires in June 2026, H.R. will move back to Mexico with his family and reapply for the J-1 visa in hopes of returning to California.

Not so temporary in fact, they tend to get green cards and stay.
Idk what schools can’t find PE teachers. Maybe in Oakland?

So California needs H-1Bs for PE teachers now???
Not a single credentialed American who can blow a whistle, run laps, or teach dodgeball?
What’s next … substitute teachers on OPT?
Crossing guards on L-1s?
That’s not a labor shortage.
That’s a wage and policy problem.
Calling that an “H-1B shortage” is malpractice.
When will it end? Why does no one care? How can we expect our children to get jobs when our gov replaces them with cheap temporary h1bs?
