Climate, Culture, Conditions, and Compensation: How to Address the Staffing Crisis and Meet Kids' Needs
American Educator, v46 n3 p3-5 Fall 2022
This article provides excerpts of "Here Today, Gone Tomorrow? What America Must Do to Attract and Retain the Educators and School Staff Our Students Need" by the AFT Teacher and School Staff Shortage Task Force. The report stands as recognition that teacher and school staff shortages have been caused by a long-term disinvestment in schools, and there is not one simple solution to restructuring the school system to reflect the needs of its workers and learners. It stands as an acknowledgment that all students, and all educators and staff, have unique needs. Moving into the new school year the AFT will continue to use this report and its action steps to proactively improve the working and learning conditions for everyone in our schools. For the full report--which contains dozens of bold yet practical actions that federal, state, and local governments; school districts; and unions should take to create student-centered, educator-led schools--see go.aft.org/rfq.
