Tackling Teacher Turnover

Each school year, new teachers enter the classroom with enthusiasm and excitement. Yet statistics show as many as half of those teachers will leave the profession after just a few years. We'll look at what's causing so many educators to go elsewhere, and what's being done to address those issues. Laura's guests are Rob Fried, Executive Director of the Upper Valley Teacher Institute and its "Great Teaching Project" to address teacher retention; and Mark Joyce, Executive Director of the New Hampshire School Administrators Association. We'll also hear from Michael Andrew, Professor of Education at the University of New Hampshire.
