Regional Office Of Education Continues To Deal With Teacher Shortage

School districts across the state are facing a teacher shortage like never before. In some parts of Illinois, the shortage is so severe that districts are pulling back class offerings and making larger class sizes. Mark Jontry serves as the Regional Superintendent for McLean, Logan, Livingston and DeWitt County.

 

 

Jontry added that some teachers are leaving the profession altogether, or some are exploring higher-paying jobs outside his districts. In addition, his districts are looking for more substitutes to fill the gaps.
