Teacher Shortage Papers all over the nation ha•c

this yt'ar carried reports of dire i.hortagcs of teachers on all levels.

Re:isons for this lack of teacher personnel imay be laid at the door d several factors: ( I) Fewer pcr­snns cn:ering the profession, (2) '.\1any lured to jobs offering more lucrative salaries, (3) Social re­strictions placed upon teachers in the small town and rural com­n.funities, and for ,vhite teachers, the low social status into which teachers arc forced by their low salary scale.

Knowing the necessity for well trained teachers, and the desira· bility of retaining experienced teachers, Boards of Education and school administrators have the problem of pacifying present teach­ers while making the field attrac· t ive to young people.

One roung teacher in Florida resigned not because of low salary, ~nsanitary and inadequate teach· ing facilities, unsatisfactory living conditions, or social restraint, but because she was reprimanded be­cause she refused to give personal, :tfter school tutoring, sans pay, to a fourteen year old boy whose father lcept him out of school dur­irrg regular hours to work in a
