re: I have some doubts about the 50% turnover. Maybe 50% of new brand new teachers leave during the 1st year or don't come back for the 2nd, but I don't think 50% of all teachers leave each year. In fact I'm almost 100% certain that isn't true.

Yeah, the 50% was for new teachers within 5 years and was for California the first year. Still way high.

Have no doubts.....that's the turnover rate here.
