As communities across the Bay Area push to create more affordable teacher housing, the Milpitas Unified School District is trying out a different approach: asking parents to take in teachers priced out by soaring Silicon Valley rents.

Last school year, the district said it lost at least seven teachers who struggled to afford the area. The average rent for a one-bedroom apartment in Milpitas is now nearly $3,000 a month, a 15% spike since last September, according to rental listing site Zumper. That’s roughly half the salary for early-career teachers in the district, who earned around $68,000 last year.
