It is such a same that anyone with 62 credits in college can just step in and feel the waters. This is because there is a mentally in this nation still that teachers are not professionals.

How would you like to find out that your plumber was just a sub and he is just feeling the waters? How about your banker, or your Doctor? I can bet most of you would run if your doctor walked in and said "Hello, I'm your substitute doctor today, I think I might like to be a doctor someday so I thought I would feel the waters." Yet we are willing to take a chance on unqualified teachers walking into a classroom with our nations next leaders and let them feel the waters???

I believe Every teacher should have no less than a BA and state License and all that is required to get one! Substitute or full time!! There are so many teachers out there without jobs and as a community we are snubbing our noses at them and hiring someone who is not sure what they want to do with their life so they are feeling the waters? I say....go feel the waters with someone else kids.

Teachers deserve our respect as professional. They had to attend college for no less then 4 years, they had to do an internship of student teaching. Pass test such as the Praxis in order just to get a license. Why do we think as a society that just anyone can step in the classroom and take over, just so they can feel the waters!!!
Teachers deserve more than that!
