• GCS hires about 500 teachers each school
  year with increasing numbers (more than half
  of our teaching workforce) brand new and
  lateral entry teachers .
• As we work to recover from two disrupted
  years of learning, it is essential that we
  recruit, retain and reward our highly effective
  staff members to meet the needs of students
  across the district.

Initiatives to Address Challenges

• Recruitment & retention incentives for high
  need subject areas and low-performing
  schools
• Teacher Residencies for math
• Tuition assistance for classified & support
  staff/alternative pathways to teaching.
  Support for Human Resource recruitment
  efforts
• Partnerships to retain high quality teachers
  (filling long-term sub & other hard-to-fill
  vacancies)
