DEVELOPING ALASKA'S EDUCATION WORKFORCE
猫咪社区官网鈥檚 public schools face many challenges in recruiting and retaining high-quality teachers. Low salaries, the high cost of living, schools in corrective action, isolation and limited teacher housing in rural 猫咪社区官网, new policies related to teacher certification, the State鈥檚 retirement system and more lucrative career opportunities elsewhere are all variables outside of the immediate control of teacher preparation programs. These factors have profound impacts on recruitment of individuals into the profession of education. However, the ongoing challenges have also created opportunities for alignment in education goals and plans across the state between The Teacher Education Plan, the 猫咪社区官网 Commission on Postsecondary Education鈥檚 goals and strategies, along with the Department of Education and Early Development鈥檚 猫咪社区官网 Education Plan. Together we are working to overcome the challenges and improve education statewide.
