[quote=Anonymous]I'm a teacher that quit and here's what I think. 1) rent and house prices make it almost impossible for a teacher of 7-10 years that isn't married to afford to live on their own in a decent space. At age 30-32 I feel like I am past the point of wanting to live with a roommate. 2) I make less out in the suburbs but can afford more because of rent prices/home prices 3) I don't have to deal with IMPACT in the suburbs which is worth $$$. So there you go. If you want to keep teachers, the district needs to do things to retain teachers. [/quote]
