Across the D.C. region, schools are trying to fill at least 800 teaching vacancies before students return to classrooms later this month. The scramble comes after another year of climbing teacher resignations locally and across the country.
Alexandria saw 325 teachers leave last year, compared to 212 in 2021-22. More than 500 teachers left Loudoun County Public Schools last year, up from 339 in the school year prior. In Prince George’s County, officials counted 1,126 resignations between July 2022 and this July — the district last year reported losing 989 teachers between June 2021 and July 2022.
Martin said she has heard of several teachers who are retiring earlier than they have to. She also said she has heard more often of younger teachers leaving for other professions with better work-life balance and pay. “There’s just a decision that people come to, that they’ve given all they can give, and they’re not getting the satisfaction from the work that they deserve for the effort they’re putting into it,” Martin said.
The D.C. Council also passed a budget this year that includes a provision for a flexible schedule pilot program, aimed to give teachers more freedom throughout the school day. And the city’s new “Grow Your Own” initiative is being designed to develop high school students and paraprofessionals into licensed teachers.
