**Primary School in California Remains Occupied Due to Teacher Shortages**
The California Federal Primary School continues to be occupied by parents, who are protesting the lack of teachers for both the morning and afternoon shifts. Since the beginning of the academic year, classes have been disrupted due to this ongoing issue.
Brenda Machado, a mother of a first-grade student, stated emphatically that they will not allow students or teachers to enter the school until the education authorities address the shortage. On Monday night, locks were placed on the school gates as a form of protest.
“We won’t let anyone in until we get the teachers we’ve been missing,” warned Brenda. She expressed frustration over the recurring problem, mentioning that this has been an ongoing issue for three years.
