Episode Details

On This Episode of The People’s Voice Podcast, I discussed how teacher shortages in U.S. K–12 schools are pushing districts to rely on private staffing agencies, some which are owned by private equity firms. While these agencies help fill urgent teacher vacancies, they can create long-term dependence, increase costs paid with taxpayer dollars, and in some cases are linked to poorer student performance and lower test scores. Other concerns such as high turnover, labor violations, and weakened teacher-student relationships have also been created. Sadly this straregy is often praticed in failing schools which are commonly in low-income, urban, and rural communities where teacher shortages are the most severe.
