Teach for America
From the New York Times, an article about Teach for America:"All told, a record 17,350 recent college graduates applied to Teach for America this year. After a drop last year, applications were up nearly 30 percent. Teach for America accepted about a third of this year's Ivy League applicants, and about a sixth of all applications."
Why is there a lack of interest in becoming a teacher?
Is this the future of US education?
Other thoughts welcome.

Here is another good article about the status of education in Florida.
Key point: "Gov. Jeb Bush continues to insist that any major salary increase for Florida teachers should be dependent on putting a revision of the class-size amendment onto the ballot and passing it."
