Massachusetts has roughly one teacher for every 13 students, which is better than the national average of one teacher for every 16 students.
However, the state is facing a teacher shortage, just like the rest of the U.S. NewsNation reported that the state was offering emergency teaching licenses to educators who only had bachelor’s degrees, in an effort to get more teachers into schools.
