Local students have been back in classrooms in front of teachers for about a month now, but school districts are still having trouble filling teacher vacancies.– Local students have been back in classrooms in front of teachers for about a month now, but school districts are still having trouble filling teacher vacancies.
In the St. Johns County School District, there were 49 teacher vacancies heading into the first week of school. As of Friday, there were 76 vacancies, according to the district, an increase of 27 in just over a month. That’s an average of 1.5 vacancies per school. Dillon, who leads the teachers union, said she’s getting calls from teachers who say they are stressed to the breaking point.“It is student behavior. It is covering for the vacant positions. If there’s a first grade room next door that does not have a teacher they are covering from lesson plans, they’re assisting with grades, and the workload is such that it’s pushing people out the door,” Dillon said.
A Clay County school district spokesperson said, “We are working hard on recruitment efforts and Human Resources staff will be attending various career fairs throughout the state from now through November.”
