[quote=Anonymous]Preschool teacher here. I work at a part-time half-day preschool based in a church. We have very low turnover: in the past 3 years, we have had 6 of 22 staff leave. 3 retirements (after 20-30 year tenures at our school), one move away, one changed to a new field, one stayed home with kids. Our pay is better than a typical day care center's pay. Also, I think that preschools run by church/temple tend to retain staff longer because many of the staff are committed to a higher mission and/or are part of a church community. It is more than just a job for many staff at this kind of school. I think that is a hidden benefit of a religiously-affiliated school, even if you are not at all interested in the religion part. OP, that sounds like too much turnover, and too little communication. It may indeed be that during their transition in leadership, they are not handling everything so smoothly. That would give me some concern. [/quote]
