According to a new report from the City and County of San Francisco Grand Jury, one in four teachers in San Francisco are currently uncredentialed and not qualified to teach.
Before the report came out on Thursday, the San Francisco Unified School District had already been going through turmoil this week following the release of documents finding a teacher last year had to be suspended for discriminating against white students.
While the district had many other longer-term problems going on as well, the most urgent by far was the teacher shortage.

A core principle in school education is students do best when grouped in classes based on similar/equivalent academic abilities. Just do that and more teachers will stay because classes like that also work best for teachers. Everybody benefits, including slow students who will no longer feel intimidated. Accept reality and deal with it reasonably. That is not even hard to do. ABN
