Teacher attrition has long been a significant challenge within the
field of education. It is a commonly-cited statistic that almost
fifty percent of beginning teachers leave the field within their
first five years, to the detriment of schools, students, and their
own career development. There Has to be a Better Way offers an
essential voice in understanding the dynamics of teacher attrition
from the perspective of the teachers themselves. Drawing upon
in-depth qualitative research with former teachers from urban
schools in multiple regions of the United States, Lynnette
Mawhinney and Carol R. Rinke identify several themes that uncover
the rarely-spoken reasons why teachers so often willingly leave the
classroom. The authors go further to provide concrete
recommendations for how school administrators can better support
their practicing teachers, as well as how teacher educators might
enhance preparation for the next generation of educators. Complete
with suggested readings and discussion questions, this book serves
as an indispensable resource in understanding and building an
effective and productive educational workforce for our nation's
students.
