Maybe this is too simple, but if it’s true that great teachers go to the easiest districts, then maybe all you need to do is double/triple their pay and that would definitely encourage some of the male/tougher teachers to try to improve lower income areas. Heck, work 1 year and make 3 times what I do now? Sign me up…or at least let me try it and see if it’s worth my while/time.
To balance it out in terms of funding, you now take 1/4 or 1/2 pay for a teacher in the good area and lower everyone’s pay since these “kids” are easy to teach and EVERYONE wants to work in this school district. This is already done in corporate life where jobs in Hawaii pay typically lower than some other places. Doctor jobs in CA is hard to find so most doctors have to move to other areas since everyone wants to work/stay in CA.
Again, saying a law that tries to ban bad teachers is going to lead to 100% vindictive parents or admins is a stretch. If people had to openly say, VOTE a bad teacher out, you can have everyone else in the class publicly also VOTE to keep the teacher in and maybe it’s just 1 bad parent or 1 bad admin who is sleeping with the teacher’s rival…
None of this anonymous stuff since someone’s livelihood is on the line here. This works out in most normal communities and the old Internet of old when people didn’t have something to find behind.
