THE DANGEROUS SHORTAGE OF
HEBREW SCHOOL TEACHERS

Nor do we grasp the full dimen-
sions of the teacher shortage,
when we think of it merely in
terms of how few new teachers
are graduated each year. We must
also bear in mind the large num-
bers who yearly leave the teach
ing profession. We have no stat
istics to support this statement,
but it is a Well-known fact that
those already in the teaching field,
and those about to enter it, too
frequently view their teaching as
a part-time job, or as stepping
stone to a more lucrative and
more honored profession.
Some Jews may be disposed to
take comfort from the fact that
the problem of teacher shortage
is not confined to the Jewish
teaching field. There is grave
shortage of teachers in the field
of general education as we'll.
That, however, is cold comfort
indeed. Where education in gen.
eral is held in contempt, Jewish
education is bound to suffer even
more. For Jewish education can
not depend for it's success on ma
terialistic concern for ones future
livelihood, as can general educa-
ton. It can flourish only in a eli
The Southern Jewish weekly. [volume] (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1939-1992, 1954-09-24

It is estimated that only about
eighty teachers have been grad
uated this year from all the He
brew teachers training schools in
this country. When we reflect that
this is considerably less than the
number of rabbis graduated from
our rabbinical seminaries, we
begin to see with how grave a
problem we are faced by reason
of the shortage of teaching per-
sonnet. For it is obvious that,
though most congregations can
get along with only one rabbi,
there is no congregational school
of any size that does not require
a corps of several teachers. A
resolution recently adopted by the
Second National Conference on
Jewish Education does not exag-
gerate when it declares that the
paucity of trained Jewish teachers
threatens the future of our chill
dren as Jews and places the
very survival of American Jewry
in jeopardy"
