An alarming number of educators say they plan to leave the profession. Connecticut's Teacher of the Year said after quitting that he was on the verge of breaking. Staffing shortages have already forced schools to scramble to keep their doors open, and the problem could get worse soon. Many teachers say they are tired of being burned out by the Pandemic, and are ready to quit because of low pay and a lack of respect. The expectations for teachers were so high and the support so low, that a former fourth-grade teacher couldn't talk about her work without crying. When she saw parents in her community bashing teachers on Facebook, she had enough. I was so embarrassed to realize this is what people thought of my career, I was once so proud to announce it out loud. Some teachers have found it intolerable that they have been on the front lines of the Pandemic battles. Insider asked teachers around the US why they quit or retired early in the last two years, as polling shows more teachers may soon leave the profession earlier than planned. A profession tattered by burnout and feelings of being disrespected, micromanaged and overwhelmed by expectations is revealed by answers from half a dozen teachers. Angry parents or political pressures were cited by a few. Sheena Graham, Connecticut's Teacher of the Year who retired in January at least five years earlier than she had planned, said she was on the verge of breaking. As COVID hit, it brought it to the forefront. Staffing shortages and finding substitute teachers have been a problem for some school systems. In New Mexico, the National Guard is filling in for teachers. CNN reported that other school systems have tried to get central office employees, young alumni, and parents to be substitute teachers. According to the National Education Association, there have been teacher shortages in the past two years and now include other positions such as bus drivers, school nurses, and food service workers. The union says that there are 389,000 fewer school staff members in K-12 schools and higher education now than there were before the epidemic. More than half of the 3,600 members who responded to the NEA's latest survey said they planned to leave education sooner than they planned. Some of the serious problems school employees said they experienced were burnout, stress from the Pandemic, extra work because of unfilled job openings, and low pay. Bryant, the teacher from Sacramento who resigned in February after going on leave in November, wouldn't say if he knew any teachers who were having a great experience. More than three quarters of the NEA survey respondents said that unfilled job openings have led to more work obligations for the educators who remain. One Memphis teacher who quit her job told Insider that she was given 194 students during virtual teaching when the other teacher quit. Fewer people are choosing the profession, with teaching programs seeing a decline in enrollment. It is squeezing the labor market, according to Chad Aldman, policy director of the Edunomics Lab at Georgetown University. He said that a major spike in turnover hasn't happened despite the signs of burnout among teachers. Federal data shows a pretty typical year for turnover in the public education industry, which includes K-12 teachers. The voluntaryquit rate was slightly above the 20-year average, while total separations were slightly below average. State-level data shows that turnover has not changed much over time. The story for next year is not yet told. National headlines portray education as a battleground, with fights over face masks, controversial books and the teaching of race and gender. GOP-led states have imposed restrictions on the teaching of race while congressional Republicans are making parental involvement in education central to their pitch to voters. The political pressure could affect the views of teachers. According to a survey conducted by SurveyUSA for the advocacy group Stand for Children, a push for laws that prevent honest teaching and conversations in their classrooms would make them more likely to leave when the school year ends. Almost three in 10 teachers said it was very likely that they would leave the profession in the next year. The former Utah history teacher said it was time to quit in July of 2021 because of politicians trying to prevent teachers from talking about race in the classroom. She said that the further politicization of teaching has been sad. She wrote in an email that children might not get what is best for them because a few people are worried about a child's comfort instead of their growth. She quit without another job lined up because she felt demoralized. Politics has taken over classrooms and communities are controlling everything teachers must do. She began looking for a job after her parents told her to go back to work. A student reinforced that decision when she answered her phone in class. The student turned her back when she was called on. She left her job teaching kindergarten at a charter school to cry every day. She was no longer able to deal with children's behavioral issues, which teachers and other experts say have been worsened by the Pandemic. She said that administrators blamed teachers during a faculty meeting in October. She packed up her classroom and left. Bryant said students have more social and emotional needs after the Covid shutdown, and many are severely behind in reading and math. She spent three months trying to get more help for a student who was throwing things, hitting other children and running out of the classroom. She said she was exhausted by 11 a.m., after three hours of work. In the last two years, Gomez said she has noticed more teachers leaving in the middle of the year rather than waiting to fulfill their contract. She said that teachers are starting to see their former colleagues go to different careers in project management, professional development, curriculum writing, or sales in order to get higher pay or a better work-life balance. Gomez said that it was having a snowball effect. A sales instructor with a master's degree in curriculum and instruction, Lobb works for a Fortune 500 technology company, training new hires, leading group activities and administering assessments. She wants her former colleagues to join her. She came from a family of teachers and leaving the profession was a huge decision. She said that she has never been happier.
