Others have seen teachers rotated in and out of numerous classrooms. Bibb County School officials have hired a person to concentrate on recruitment and they held a job fair early this spring to fill fall vacancies. Superintendent Sharon Patterson spoke at a Rotary meeting a few weeks ago, stressing the need for more teachers. She said she's willing to help people interested in becoming teachers get the certification they need to qualify for open positions. People with skills that translate to the classroom can work with her staff to customize a program that will make them eligible for certification.
Teaching is more than a profession.
It's a calling. Maybe it's calling you. Perhaps you've never considered teaching and are working in another field. Perhaps you are nearing retirement. Perhaps you are in the military and will soon be discharged.
