Looking at the Nebraska Dept of Education website, there are so many openings all throughout the state at all levels of K-12. It seems like there are not nearly as many kids majoring in education as the past. Here are some schools with quite a few openings...
Gordon-Rushville has 9 openings
Perkins County has 7 openings (a bunch of 1/2 time teacher 1/2 combo)
Lexington has 16 openings
Dundy County has 6 openings
Hyannis has 3 openings (that is a lot of Hyannis in the are they are located)
Shickley has 3 openings
What is also crazy is Hartington, Wausa, and Laurel-Concord-Coleridge all have Business Teacher openings. Those schools are all within 30 miles of each other.
What is going to be the realistic scenario to fill these gaps? Consolidations? Staff sharing? Making current teachers take on more?
