Boom or bust?

Are jobs in this industry on the rise? Are there any sub-sectors that are growing?

Where are the jobs? Which places have the most teacher opportunities?

There is currently a teacher shortage in the United States. Middle and high school math, science, and elementary special ed teachers are especially needed.

There are loan cancellation benefits for teachers who work in low income schools or in any one of the major shortage areas above.

Regions are different based on culture, history, and politics. I have lived in the South, East Coast, and Pacific Northwest and I like the last region best but the East Coast has national openings through the D.C. area.
