Who is responsible for these teacher's education, and what should local people know to be able to select the best teachers?
Umm, the teacher. A simple requirement would be a degree in the field they teach. A two-year degree would be adequate for lower grades while a 4-year would be sufficient for middle through high school classes. Mathematics-oriented degree for math, science-oriented degree for science classes, and so on. Even proven experience and knowledge in a given field for many skills would be sufficient.

The community can decide what criteria to use when hiring a teacher and which teachers to hire, either town-hall style or through the city council.
