Introducing HB295😡 & HB241👎🏼
HB295: Removes requirement for a bachelors degree to become a teacher.
HB241: Eliminates direct deposit option for paying teaching association dues.
Let EVERYONE know how harmful they are for public school teachers ✊🏼❤️

A3: It is an overarching concern that is dependent upon location and content area. In Utah, our rural areas struggle to find qualified teachers. Special education is always a high-need area, but we have more than 10% of our elementary teachers underqualified. #teachershortages

A2: We need to know WHY teachers are leaving and WHAT might make them stay. We can create enough teachers, but we can't keep them in the profession. #teachershortages

A1: In Utah, we have nearly 15% of teacher positions being filled by an underqualified individual. This last school year, more than 7% of educators left the profession, up 1.8% from the average of the last five years. #teachershortages

Story here: bit.ly/3tOmYhA
Overall, there were 12,769 students enrolled in 2021, compared to 7,311 the year before.
That was a big surprise, as many people assumed the pandemic would make teaching a less attractive job.

In consultation with the Utah State Board of Education, I have determined that we need to extend the soft closure of our public and charter schools through the remainder of the school year. #utcovid19
