Abstract |
|---|
Teacher retention has become a national crisis. This case study describes one principals efforts to support new teachers and reduce the turnover rate at her school. Recognizing the problem a few years ago, the principal took what she thought were a number of proactive, decisive steps to resolve the issue—she is doing all the right things. However, instead of improving, her new teacher attrition and migration rates are actually getting worse.
