Re: Nationwide Substitute Teacher Shortage!
One of the problems with the substitute shortage, which they did not mention in the article, is the fact that many states now require substitutes to have at least a 2-year university degree. This eliminates a lot of people who could and would substitute. Our local ISD does not require substitutes to have a degree (I think because of it being a rural area, not sure why on that), but the ISD in a different state just a few miles from us does require a 2-year degree for substitutes, and they pay a lot more as well. So there is a give and take, I guess.
