When it comes to getting the best teachers possible into the system, what are your priorities? Rank the approaches below from 1-5, with 1 being your highest priority.
As a retired teacher I KNOW that teacher training and continued staff development and support are crucial in keeping teachers in the system. It's extremely important to keep the class size manageable so that teachers know each of their students and can help them with their individual needs. Not being able to reach students can deter many teachers from dealing with many of the frustrations they face each day. Too much importance is placed on test scores and this takes time away from educating our children!
