37 New Hires

All but one are female.
Most are white.
   -One looks to be wearing a hajib.
   -One looks to be Asian Indian.

This district has this demographic of children:

Here is a new list of questions:




  • Where is the one male going? 
  • Where is the one woman who is not white heading?
  • When students draw a "scientist," they usually draw a male. What about when they draw a teacher?
  • I know of three males on Twitter that do not have a teaching job yet this year. Do their neighboring districts need male teachers?
  • How important is it that we have male teachers at each school? At each grade level?
  • Do school districts keep track of how many male and female teachers they hire?
  • Do school districts keep track of how many ethnicities they hire?
  • I wonder how many people with any type of "disability" teach? (Do corrective lenses or hearing aids count?)
  • What other questions should I be asking?
  • What am I missing? What am I not noticing?
