Initiatives to Address Connecticut's Teacher Shortage The Connecticut State University System (CSUS) has released a report highlighting initiatives at Central, Eastern, Southern and Western Connecticut State Universities designed to respond to Connecticut’s teacher shortage. The report noted that in critical academic fields, school districts face a limited supply in efforts to recruit and hire first-rate teachers. This is particularly true at the high school level, in urban areas and in Connecticut’s priority school districts, defined as having the greatest academic needs. The CSUS universities, utilizing federal grant funds, collaborated with local school districts in developing four distinct, innovative, and pioneering initiatives that earned widespread support and endorsement, and directly benefited scores of teachers, both new and experienced, and an estimated 8,000 Connecticut students.
