‘Unqualified’ Teachers
Despite all the excuses given for the lack of qualified teachers being hired in Los Angeles County and throughout the country, the bottom line is this: There will be plenty of qualified teachers once we decide to pay them what they’re worth. And this isn’t likely to happen soon because, despite all our pious comments about children being our most precious commodity, in reality they’re obviously not much of a priority at all.
