Retired Teachers … Come Back!
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
With the strict, new rules on class size, recruiting enough teachers will be even harder. For years, districts have counted on retired teachers coming back to help fill their slots. Retired teachers have experience. They’ve seen it all. And it’s not they’re - I hate to even use this highly charged word - old. Many teachers retire before age 55.
Any retired teachers out there… Are you thinking of going back? Have you gone back already? What’s it like?
