Making Teaching Respectable Again

Interesting article from the Wall Street Journal online. The teaching profession has always been known for its low pay. Add to that the problem of safety concerns and it becomes an even bigger issue.

The bulk of this article talks about how poorly paid teachers are and how that fact stops a lot of students from going into teaching.

There's also some great information about a program that they are offering that I should definitely put in my grants blog. They have a program in place that provides a monthly stipend of $1,500 for those who want to teach.
