Responding to New Teachers' Concerns
McCann, Thomas M.; Johannessen, Larry R.; Ricca, Bernard
Educational Leadership, v62 n8 p30-34 May 2005

The results of an in-depth study undertaken to understand why new teachers leave the profession and the kind of support schools can offer to keep them from doing so are discussed.
