Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a high school math teacher, failed to establish that they would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than an available U.S. worker. The evidence, including local school awards and letters of support, did not demonstrate a past record of achievement with influence on the broader field of education, which is necessary to justify a waiver of the job offer requirement.
