A national organization dedicated to prepared and effective educators for all.
◦88% of districts believe they have a teacher shortage ◦96% believe they have a substitute teacher shortage ◦17% of open teacher positions either unfilled or filled with someone less than qualified for the position ◦412 canceled courses; 385 moved classes online.
The teacher shortage was a problem before the pandemic. Now it’s a national emergency that requires all levels of government to take action immediately. This is not sustainable. The system will collapse and we know who will be left behind.

The role of a principal can sometimes be challenging, but as @SecCardona shares, principals play an important role in motivating their school communities, building trust with parents, and fostering a true love of learning among their students. Happy #NationalPrincipalsMonth!
Congresswoman Wilson and 12 of her colleagues called for funding in the Build Back Better Act to address critical educator shortages so that “all students have access to well-prepared and effective teachers and school leaders.” @educatorsforall
This week at the White House, we celebrated the incredible achievements, sacrifices, and talents of teachers from across the country. To the 2020 and 2021 Teachers of the Year – and to all teachers: thank you for everything you do.
