Yes teacher pay would help but this job is becoming so difficult you can’t pay anyone enough to do it. Teachers want to be and feel effective. Reduce class sizes, reduce caseloads. Period. Build more schools, and yes as you said address the teacher pipeline. Make developers build a school in the midst of their new development or pay the taxes to make that possible. While we are waiting for that, hire armies of paraprofessionals. We need help now.
