Home Products Educator Retention and Turnover in Alaska
Like many other states, Alaska is finding it difficult to retain educators. Turnover—defined as not returning to a position or school in a given year—among Alaska educators is higher in rural areas and among educators not prepared in the state. Alaska’s struggle to retain educators is concerning because educator turnover at the teacher, principal, or superintendent level is associated with negative student outcomes.
