[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, I tried to quit as a school administrator once we got to 2022.  Covid was the worst ever project for an educator.  Fortunately, my boss let me take a few months of leave instead.  Smart managers recognize that, by showing some flexibility and maybe a little gratitude, they can keep an employee with valuable experience instead of losing them entirely.  Easier than having to recruit and train someone new. [/quote]

This is excellent. I wonder if we’d be able to keep more teachers in the profession if they were also given this type of respect and understanding.

I’m the teacher who posted above. I’ve watched dozens of teachers quit when things get overwhelming. Most endure to the end of the year, but I’ve seen plenty walk out during the fall. It would be better for the school community to work with them, providing a sub as the teacher regroups. That could stop the revolving door of teachers, because I’ve noticed the mid-year replacements usually don’t make it to the end of the year, either.[/quote]
