Educator Recruitment and Retention

Educators play a crucial role in the life of every child.  Research confirms that teachers are the single most important school-based influence on how well students learn.  "Educator quality is the single most important school-level contributor to student learning and achievement" (Leithwood, Louis, Anderson, & Wahlstrom, 2004; Rivkin, Hanushek, & Kain, 2005). 
 

News

The 2022-23 application for the Educator Recruitment and Retention Program has closed. The 2023-24 application window will open in July, 2023.
