Teacher Retention: Keeping Good Teachers Teaching

Teacher Retention: Keeping Good Teachers Teaching

We all learned during the pandemic just how complex the job of an educator is. Our educators are willing to put themselves on the front lines of shaping young minds, but what are new teachers really facing in classrooms today? How can veteran teachers both adapt to the post-pandemic reality AND share their gained wisdom to help newer teachers be successful? Lori Woodley-Langendorff is joined by Michael Lewis, a veteran teacher, and Ashley Jaron, a first year teacher, to discuss how education has changed and how they are adapting to it.
