    KTAR's Griselda Zetino on whether Kellyanne Conway has focus-grouped
    for Donald Trump's Save America PAC why legacy American moms and
    dads won't let their sons and daughters grow up to be public school

    | Patti Tussey, chief human resource officer for the Pendergast
    | Elementary School District, told KTAR News 92.3 FM the J-1 visa
    | program is "one recruiting option that we have" as the state
    | continues to see a severe teacher shortage.
    |
    | The district, which is where Babiano teaches, began hiring
    | international teachers in 2015. Currently, it employs more than 40.
    |
    | "Many of them are qualified in science, math and special education,"
    | Tussey said. "Those are specific areas where it's even more
    | difficult to fill."

    Does .PH need their STEM teachers?

    international order isn't based on cognizable public rules, and that
    the people who mewled about Kashoggi are unprincipled cowards. We
    had this policy under Trump. Now we have it again but with less
    credibility." - Second City Bureaucrat <URL:https://twitter.com/CityBureaucrat/status/1537211948995158024>
