District Takes Action to Fill Niche Teaching Jobs
The De Soto Explorer (KS)
A Kansan school district is feeling the statewide teacher shortage, and is fighting back. The De Soto Board of Education last week approved 5-0 a proposal to reimburse teachers in the district who complete their special education or English language learners certification. The board waited to approve the policy until negotiations could occur between the district and the De Soto Teacher's Association.
I love your site. I am an ESOL teacher and can't wait to share this site with other educators.
