Minnesota is struggling to hire fully licensed teachers for their classrooms, so they are turning to those with provisional licenses. According to Star Tribune in the 2019-20 school year, “There were more than 57,300 teachers with professional licenses not working in the classroom — roughly 50% of the state's corps of licensed teachers.” Those certified teachers have taken jobs outside the school system and are being replaced with underqualified instructors.
MPR News reports, "The Professional Educator Licensing and Licensing Standards Board (PELSB) found in its 2023 report that between 80-90 percent of Minnesota districts were significantly impacted by teacher and substitute shortages."
Teacher Shortage reports claim, "Based on news and state reports, we estimate that there are at least 55,000 vacant teacher positions in the United States."
