Survey data were used to explore the current teaching status and reasons for leaving or considering leaving teaching for 154 career changers who all graduated from a Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) program over a 9-year time period. Respondents provided information about reasons for leaving teaching, indicating personal/family, career, and school satisfaction reasons influenced their decisions. Their reasons are discussed in light of the broader retention and attrition literature and also are linked to implications for practice with those preparing and working with new teachers.
