Discovery Education released a free eBook, Retain Your Best Educators and Overcome the Teacher Shortage, with five actions for leaders on teacher retention.

Charlotte, NC (Tuesday, May 2, 2023)—Discovery Education today announced the availability of a new, free, eBook entitled Retain Your Best Educators and Overcome the Teacher Shortage—5 Actions for Proactive Education Leaders. Discovery Education is the worldwide edtech leader whose state-of-the-art digital platform supports instruction wherever it takes place. 

Recent research from the Institute of Education Sciences showed that 53% of schools started the 2022-2023 school year feeling understaffed, and as more teachers plan to leave the profession, more schools will be left feeling incomplete. Retain Your Best Educators and Overcome the Teacher Shortage is a product of interviews with teachers and administrators across the country conducted over the last year and offers school leaders concrete suggestions they can take to retain their teachers including: 

  • Providing teachers opportunities to grow in new ways. 
  • Building creative and encouraging work environments. 
  • Empowering teachers with time-saving resources. 
  • Positively presenting new innovations. 

A free copy of Retain Your Best Educators and Overcome the Teacher Shortage—5 Actions for Proactive Education Leaders can be downloaded here. 

“Throughout my career, I’ve dealt firsthand with the challenges of retaining great teachers,” said Dr. Karen Beerer, Discovery Education’s Senior Vice President of Teaching and Learning and a former classroom educator and district administrator. “Retain Your Best Educators and Overcome the Teacher Shortage offers readers actionable and easy-to-implement strategies that will help school leaders’ efforts to keep their best talent.”
