"On top of it being notoriously hard for keeping drivers in the district."

If you pay them, they will drive. If you raise them adequately regularly, they will stay.

Just like the national "teacher shortage" because we pay them dogshit relative to their education, tell them they're spoiled and don't even deserve dogshit, and then blame the few still showing up for poor outcomes. Then, when kids recognize that getting into teaching makes you a sucker, we cry tears of blood about classroom sizes as if we can't trace back why.

We should take half the defense budget for 10 years and put it into rebuilding the utter ruin that is public K-12, in order of the states with the worst outcomes, if we want to even compete in the future. We of course won't though. We'll jist keep saying "if only there was something we could dooooooooo..."

Ooh I know, we should cut rich peoples taxes yet again, that'll help this time for sure!
