    Oct 16, 2019

    The student population is growing — and not enough teaching jobs are available to keep up. A new report found that since the Great Recession of 2008, the country lost 60,000 jobs in education. Not only that, but 247,000 more teaching jobs should have been created to keep up with growing student enrollment as the population increases. This has resulted in a shortfall of 307,000 teaching jobs — meaning there are over 300,000 educators currently needed right now. https://www.businessinsider.com/american-teacher-shortage-underpa...
