  Case: Retention in Education
Why do you think many teachers are quitting after 3-5 years of instruction. What are the downfalls of teacher that teachers have had enough with? How can we support those teachers who are feeling overwhelmed?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
As a second year teacher, I think it has a lot to do with lack of support and an overwhelming amount of work continuously being piled on. There is a lack of support from administration, parents, and colleagues. Things are constantly changing which creates more responsibilities and work for teachers. Additionally, compensation does not equal the amount of work that is required. Teachers see a less stressful career for more money and quickly change.

Comments: I agree and disagree. Not all situations are the same. There are administration teams that are supportive and have their hands tied. I agree that teachers may see a much simpler career and go for it.

Comments: I am not even teaching and I am seeing exactly what you are saying, there is a real lack of resources. All teachers should have an assistant for starters.
