| Four Things Schools Can Do to Keep Teachers Happy Posted: 04 Nov 2016 12:03 PM PDT  The study, published in the October issue of the American Educational Research Journal, found that four main factors reduce high teacher turnover rates: administrators who are committed to teachers' professional development, a safe school environment, high expectations for students, and a sense of collaboration among teachers. "We've been sort of consumed by the importance of the individual teacher's role, either by strengthening their skills through professional development or exiting them and potentially hiring a better teacher," Matthew Kraft, a professor at Brown University and the lead researcher on the study, told TakePart. The researchers based their findings on results from the NYC School Survey from the 2008–2009 through 2012–13 school years, which was given to teachers, students, and parents in the district, as well as the city's student assessment and administrative data.
