[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of voluntary changes in our school each year, barely any teachers over age 30. :([/quote]

This is our very first year having a teacher with experience.  What a difference!!  She is phenomenal.

We have had good teachers before who were young, but there is no comparison.  Experience makes a difference in my job and I thinknit’s The same for Teachers.[/quote]
A teacher with less than five years of experience is considered "green".[/quote]

Of course!  The newer teachers seem to have a much tougher time with classroom managemanet.  Plus, the county doesn’t provide textbooks/workbooks, so teachers are often supplying their own materials.  Takes time to build up those resources.[/quote]

I disagree with this. Yes, you probably don't want a teacher in her first year of teaching but I have a 3rd year teacher and she's been fabulous. Lots of energy and doing a lot of enrichment activities (extra science, class pet) and evidence based innovations (flexible seating arrangements like bouncy chairs etc).  And some of the older teachers in my school are good but they have so much accrued vacation time that they're absent one day a week which is disruptive.  You don't have this issue with newer teachers.[/quote]
