Rees Says Teachers Lacking Money Incentive In California
Jack D Rees Hayward superintendent tells CTA policy board that only half of qualified instructors teach in California schools citing lack of monetary incentives as the main issue. Proposals seek 1.5 million dollar yearly state aid rise and raise minimum salaries from 3400 to 4200 per year.

CTA backs a Department of Education pilot for gifted education improvements.
