BROWNINGTON – Glover resident Davi Bock used the privilege of the floor at Monday’s meeting of the Lake Region Union Elementary and Middle School District to bring up the topic that was at the top of many people’s mind — teacher shortages, and the recent resignations of middle school teachers from Glover Community School.

“All of the middle school teachers have left, the principal is leaving,” Mr. Bock said.  “There’s a lot of money around chasing scarce talent, but I urge you to think about the fact that this time may not be like other times. Maybe start thinking about some contingencies.  I don’t know the answers, and there may not be any, but it’s a serious concern. I know that when you dig to the bottom of the barrel, the kids aren’t well served.”
