New Labs Needed Science Programs Hinge On Teachers
In 1951 the U S had 75 000 science teachers shrinking to 45 000 with a low point in 1954 and gradual recovery since. Only about 56 percent of newly certified science teachers in 1955 took teaching jobs the next fall as many entered private industry, military service, or pursued graduate study. In Middletown, Director Thomas F Webb says local science and math programs remain solid with high school staff largely holding science majors or minors and losses mainly due to pay differences prompting moves to other regions.
