More teachers are leaving Wisconsin schools each year. The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction reports that educators are leaving faster than new ones can be hired. In the 2022-23 school year, there were 467 open teaching jobs and 4,507 uncertified teachers in classrooms statewide. Students often do not have guaranteed qualified instruction, and school boards are running out of temporary solutions.
Hiring teachers locally in Wisconsin is challenging. Many are leaving the profession, and strict licensure rules also make it risky to hire unverified candidates. Proximity Learning solves both issues by placing DPI-certified teachers into classrooms through live synchronous instruction, serving Milwaukee, Madison, and all other districts. Your classroom can have certified instruction within days, ensuring students get steady, uninterrupted learning from day one.
All Proximity Learning teachers in Wisconsin are certified to meet DPI standards, teaching core subjects, world languages, electives, and special education at every grade level.
