CAEPR releases report on the cost of teacher turnover in Alaska

by Michelle Saport  |   

This chart from "The cost of teacher turnover in Alaska" looks at where teachers go after leaving positions in Alaska's rural districts.

Alaska faces challenges recruiting and retaining educators, especially in its rural and remote communities. A new report, "The cost of teacher turnover in Alaska" by Dayna Jean DeFeo, Trang Tran, Diane Hirshberg, Dale Cope and Pam Cravez, details the costs associated with teacher turnover and calculates an average per-teacher cost in four categories: separation, recruitment, hiring and induction. It details actual dollars allocated to these activities and makes recommendations for policy and practice. Download the report at the Center for Alaska Education Policy Research website.
