Abstract | This book highlights the problems that drive many special educators out of teaching and outlines practical recommendations that leaders can use to increase retention. Drawing on field experience as well as research findings, the author provides a comprehensive framework for supporting special educators. This book provides effective ways to: (1) recruit and hire qualified special educators; (2) provide responsive induction programs for new teachers; (3) design effective professional development opportunities; (4) create inclusive and collaborative schools; (5) provide reasonable work assignments and reduce paperwork; and (6) promote wellness by reducing stress. This book emphasizes the important role that principals play in supporting special educators and how they can make a difference in what special educators accomplish in their schools. Numerous assessments, tools, and resources are included to help leaders, mentors, and teachers improve the conditions of special education teaching. Four parts and nine chapters comprise this book.
