School districts across the country are facing a teacher shortage,
fueled by burnout and low pay.
But in Texas, many blame politics.
Last year, Ramsers district saw a 40% jump in resignations
and retirements after new conservative school board members pushed to
remove hundreds of books and restrict lessons about race and
LGBTQ identities.
A specific case, but acknowledged it has more openings this
year than last year, saying many other school districts, not
only in Texas but across the nation, are also experiencing
this declining retention rate of teachers and other employees.
