  • Substitute Teachers, Diversity, Recruitment, and Retention During Covid-19

    Substitute Teachers, Diversity, Recruitment, and Retention During Covid-19

    Even before the coronavirus pandemic descended upon schools, teacher absences were on the rise. According to a new survey from the EdWeek Research Center, absences lead to an increased demand for substitute teachers-often in short supply. The pandemic could create more challenges, as 1 in 5 teachers say they are unlikely to return to the classroom in the fall and others may face absences if infected by the disease. Social distancing measures may create additional needs by reducing the number of students per classroom, which in turn increases the demand for teachers. In this environment, how can schools keep their classrooms staffed while continuing to strive to increase the level of educator diversity? Join the webinar Substitute Teachers, Diversity, Recruitment, and Retention During Covid-19 to see how it combines data with real world experiences and practical advice and recruitment, retention, and diversity initiatives.
