Rural School Boards and Teacher Transience.

Bryant, Miles T.

Rural Educator, v9 n1 p7-10 Fall 1987

A study of randomly selected Nebraska schools found that small rural elementary schools tended to employ teachers with fewer years of experience than did larger rural or semirural schools. Of 29 rural schools with one or two teachers, there were 14 schools (48%) where average teacher experience was 0-3 years. (JHZ)
