STEM courses, special education and bilingual education are among the subjects seeking teachers.

The stare Board of Education on Wednesday unanimously approved draft regulations for a new state law, signed by Gov. Phil Murphy in September, that puts the program on pace to launch with the 2022-23 school year.

“The law is intended to extend the teacher candidate pool to provide relief to school districts experiencing staffing challenges due in no small part to the COVID-19 public health emergency, while maintaining the integrity of the educator certification process,” Schiff told the board. JerseyCAN was among six organizations that wrote a letter to the New Jersey in support of the proposal in June, three months before it became law.

Increase the pay and ensure a better work environment and there’s plenty of people in the private sector that will transition into education.
