Since 2007, Oakland Unified School District (OUSD) has averaged an 81.5% teacher retention rate on their average of 2,295 teachers. This means that each year, OUSD needs to fill over 400 teaching positions. Nationally, the teacher retention rate is around 90%, and in California that number hovers at 88%. With this in mind, in January 2018, OUSD's Talent Division administered a comprehensive 74-question survey to all staff members. While this report analyzes responses only from teachers, the survey asked all employees about their work environment, their colleagues and supervisors, professional development, systems of support, and factors that push them to leave or stay at OUSD, among many others. As the district targets improved teacher retention, it plans to use insights from this survey in order to center the voices of teachers when making changes intended to improve teacher retention.
