Recruiting and Retaining the Next Generation of Teachers
Join the Education Commission of the States for a timely conversation on Recruiting and Retaining the Next Generation of Teachers on Wednesday, May 6. As part of Teacher Appreciation Week, this session will explore the latest research on what draws young educators to the classroom — and what helps them feel supported, valued and motivated to stay in the profession.
Hear new research findings from the Southern Regional Education Board alongside perspectives from a current Gen Z teacher, a Gen Z state legislator and a Gen Z education policy researcher. Together, they will discuss evidence-based approaches and on-the-ground insights to strengthening your state’s educator workforce.
Don’t miss this opportunity to deepen your understanding and engage in a meaningful discussion on supporting the next generation of teachers.
