Retain talent

Teachers are the greatest in-school factor contributing to student learning and achievement. Retaining the talent we have is just as important as recruiting new talent to the district. Teacher retention is impacted by working conditions and school environment, as well as compensation and career ladders opportunities. All these areas will receive greater focus and attention towards improving our retention capability for educators.

Action Steps:

• Develop and implement effective mentoring and induction programs.
• Recognize and reward talent across all academic and operational areas.
• Conduct exit interviews to determine basis for resignations/transfers and establish systems to address those issues that lead to employee turnover.
