The Hiring Preferences and Organizational Characteristics of Charter Schools: A Multiple Case Study Approach
Hightower, Andromeda
Educational Research: Theory and Practice, v33 n2 p64-79 2022
Charter schools experience higher than average teacher turnover when compared with traditional public schools, with organizational characteristics cited as one contributing factor. This paper seeks to better understand organization characteristics by examining charter school recruitment. Through a multiple case study context, hiring materials produced by large, multi-school charter school networks across the U.S. were examined using content analysis and domain-taxonomic-componential analysis. Findings revealed that teaching content effectively and determining results from data were the most common elements between cases, while "eliminate the gap" missions and giving/receiving feedback were the most different. Future implications for hiring and retention are discussed.
