One of the things that I have noticed in the Bay Area may be helpful here. There are almost no good computer classes at schools here, even though we are in the "silicon valley", or the "heart of technology." The main reason, I believe, is that anyone who knows enough about computers to be a really good teacher can find better pay at a company, and so this deters them from teaching a class. (I know that this is the problem with my school)

So, I'm wondering if it may be possible to make it so a teacher of computers or programming would be payed a little more than the average teacher. This may attract some of those who are actually a competent teacher. After all, computers are basically the core of technology these days.....
