He said they would hire someone with any major at all, as long as that individual could speak Spanish, and that the school system would tell you what to teach them.
I know that because of the shortage of math and science teachers, the towns will work with people in those majors. I know someone who got a job through the Teachers Employment agency in Fairfield and they did not have a degree in teaching. They did have to agree to go back to get that degree but were given a number of years to do it. Jay
