I have been notified by Amazon that my new book, Who Will Teach The Children? Recruiting, Retaining & Refreshing became the #1 bestselling book in Academic Development Counseling on October 16, 2019. The book identifies the problem of teachers and school administrators leaving the field. Forty-four percent of classroom teachers leave the classroom within 5 years. The professional life expectancy of school administrators is 3 years except in rural areas, high poverty and high minority areas where it is 18 months. They are leaving the field almost as quickly as schools of education are preparing them.
The book has broken the top 100 in Teacher and Student Mentoring books (#30) and number 70 in Experimental Education Methods Books and #52 in Academic Counseling.
