They talk a lot about the high number of non-certified teachers that have been hired, but how many certified teachers have applied and not gotten a full-time gig?
If it's 10, maybe the school districts have an issue.
If it's 1, maybe the issue is with her?
I wouldn't be surprised if the problem is that the schools don't want to pay a good wage
Technically, it's probably the government providing too little funding to school boards to cover hiring enough qualified teachers. But you're right; this is clearly a structural problem:
Speaking as a former teacher, this is also the result of the increasing stresses in the profession. The pattern for the last couple decades has been to continually load teachers with more responsibilities while providing less support, and many who are trying to enter the profession are burning out and switching to other jobs. I can't imagine many of those graduates would want to come back without a significant increase in compensation or a change in the culture.
