    Ill. (WTVO) — The Illinois State Board of Education is launching a $6 million campaign to recruit school teachers.

    This is to address the serious shortages in the industry across the state.

    The campaign is especially for bilingual and special education in rural and urban communities.

    The board said its annual unfilled positions data collected from all Illinois districts showed more than 4,000 unfilled positions.

    The data showed that, as of October 2023, a third of vacancies are in special education.
