Spent the day in Clark County, NV which really has done a complete turn-around on teacher recruitment – and the focus has been on teacher pay and putting great principals in schools.<\/p>\n

And the results are pretty impressive – last year at this time there were over 800 teacher openings and this year there are only about 330. \u00a0That is HUGE!<\/p>\n
