Abstract | New Orleans is looking for a few good teachers, principals and charter school operators. As state and local officials struggle to rebuild the city devastated by Hurricane Katrina 18 months ago, they are facing a severe shortage of talent willing and able to educate the fast-growing student population. The problem is especially stark in the schools operated by Louisiana's Recovery School District, since that state-run system is largely responsible for taking the steady stream of new students who show up each week. Thus, to recruit staff members, the state is turning to some local and national nonprofit groups, including New Leaders for New Schools and the New Teacher Project, both based in New York City. Unfortunately, those efforts are likely to fall far short of the need, especially for teachers. So, state officials also plan to expand their own efforts and offer new incentives to entice candidates, such as signing bonuses, housing allowances, and help in paying moving expenses. (ERIC). |
