Last spring, Idaho Matters told you about a teacher shortage in Idaho, one that had educators worried about the upcoming fall semester when kids of all ages would head back to school.

The school year for the Boise School District has started and we wanted to check back in with Idaho Education News, which first reported onthis story.

Kevin Richert, Senior Reporter and Blogger at Idaho Education News joined Idaho Matters to tell us more.

My career has allowed me to learn something new everyday and to share that knowledge with all my friends on the radio.
