CALIFORNIA SCHOOL COLLAPSE Teachers QUIT in Mass as Districts “Can’t Afford Staff”

Описание: California’s public schools are losing teachers at a historic rate — and it’s not because teachers suddenly stopped caring.

Classrooms are being abandoned mid-year. Districts are declaring financial emergencies. Parents are finding their children rotated through substitutes who quit almost as fast as they’re hired. And behind it all is a financial system engineered to collapse once the money ran out.

In this investigation, Megan Wright exposes how California’s education funding model — combined with rising pension costs, healthcare inflation, declining enrollment, and expiring federal pandemic money — has pushed school districts into a death spiral that’s now detonating in real classrooms.

This video breaks down:

Why districts can’t afford the teachers they already hired

How enrollment-based funding traps schools in permanent decline

The pension and healthcare costs swallowing district budgets

How one-time COVID money created long-term commitments

Why layoffs hit classrooms serving the most vulnerable students

How state mandates keep expanding while districts go broke

This is not a culture-war debate.
It’s budget math, incentive design, and structural failure.

📚 When class sizes explode, families flee
