The Impact of Interpersonal Relations on Teacher Turnover
Summary
This project aims to explore the social justice issue of teacher turnover, which contributes to inequity in education by disproportionately affecting minority and low-income students. This project will examine how teachers' relationships with administration, colleagues (other teachers), and students relate to their turnover potential. Specifically, this project will examine whether there is a significant difference in the relationship of turnover and interpersonal relations at schools with both high concentrations of minority, low-income, and low-achieving students as well low concentrations of minority, low-income, and low-achieving students.
