there is quite a stir here in georgia. there is a shortage of teachers so
the dept of education developed a program and announced it yesterday. anyone
with a 4 year degree can go to a 43 week crash course at 1 of 9 teaching
academies statewide and pass the praxus 1 test and recieve a provisional
teaching certificate. they are swamped with inquiries.

i am trying to look into it myself. maybe retire early from the government
and teach for as many years as i can last.
