Teacher Shortage Shrinks as Arkansas Districts Hire Emergency Teachers
Arkansas Education Commissioner A W Ford says the federal ESEA drew 1600 to 1700 teachers from public schools last year and may pull up to 2000 this year. Several hundred emergency certificates are issued to near-certified individuals to keep classrooms staffed while rural districts hire emergency substitutes. Ford also notes Crowley’s Ridge Vocational-Technical School Forrest City and Southwest Vocational-Technical Institute Camden won’t open next month, though six vocational schools operated last year and three more will open this fall.
