It's more alarming that US doesn't have enough skilled teachers in the nation that we have to hire from overseas.

Education is an investment to the future generation and must not be overlooked.

That’s not even remotely the case. We just don’t have enough people willing to move to rural Alaska.

  • I'm sure the supply will go up if extra $$$ is paid.

    • I really think y’all are underestimating the reality of living in rural Alaska. I wouldn’t take a job there unless I had literally no other livable options.

    • Except you'll have to spend way more than $100,000 to incentify US citizen from a city to move there and stay.

      And they not gonna have the same near slave H1B conditions where changing their job is just impossible..

      H1B workers in IT even have an option to find a new visa sponsor, but nobody needs foreign teacher with H1B in California or Texas or basically anywhere else.
