Asm Alvarez speaking at the Learning Policy Institute on how California is tackling teacher shortage. California, like many states, faces persistent teacher shortages. School districts struggle to fill vacancies with fully credentialed teachers, often relying on underprepared or substitute teachers, increasing class sizes, or cutting courses. To address these challenges, California has invested more than $1 billion to strengthen the teacher workforce, with a focus on increasing teacher supply in shortage areas, improving affordability and access to teacher preparation, and incentivizing skilled teachers to work in high-need schools.
