Leglslator Al Muratsuchi believes low pay is the root cause of recruitment and retention struggles. There’s evidence to back him up.
Assemblymember Al Muratsuchi seeks to tackle the statewide teacher and school staff shortage by increasing their salaries by 50% in the next seven years.
“Schools across the state are facing a workforce shortage, with many teachers and school employees unable to afford to live in the communities they work in,” said Muratsuchi in a press conference on Wednesday. “I introduced AB 938 … to not only pay them what they deserve, but also to get more young people to aspire to become educators.”
“It is intentionally drafted as ‘intent’ language rather than a mandate, in order to give district’s flexibility to increase staff salaries, benefits, as well as pay for other essential school functions,” explained Kerry Jacob, communications director for Asm. Muratsuchi. First, all districts must provide annual reports to the state on raises they give to teachers and staff. Second, legislators must decide on an annual basis how much they wish to increase the Local Control Funding Formula, or LCFF, as they make their way toward the 50% goal.
