Needed: teachers
Posted by Douglas Eisenhartat 10:33 AM

Today's Globe carries an editorial about the coming teacher gap - in just five years:

In five years, there's going to be a teacher shortage, Tom Carroll said Monday at a Simmons College conference. Two groups will collide: The wave of retiring baby-boom teachers will crash into the wave of teachers who exit the profession after five years or less, leaving a lot of empty desks at the front of the class. Every state faces this crisis, explains Carroll, the president of the National Commission on Teaching and America's Future.
What can you, the job seeker, do about it?

Well, for a start you can think aout getting into the field of education. To help get you going, check out these stats and pages on the US Dep't of Labor's website:

  • Special ed - pre-K-5th grade - projected 23% national growth, 2004-2014
  • Kindergarten teachers - projected 22% national growth, 2004-2014
  • Elementary teachers (except special ed) - projected 18% national growth, 2004-14
