Strategic and Efficient School Staffing
Sun, April 27, 11:40am to 1:10pm MDT (11:40am to 1:10pm MDT), The Colorado Convention Center, Floor: Meeting Room Level, Room 707Session Type: Symposium
Abstract
Many administrators, researchers, and policymakers worry about the ability of schools, and particularly schools serving educationally marginalized students, to effectively recruit and retain teachers and other staff. This session brings together four papers presenting novel evidence about how state and local policies facilitate - and have the potential to facilitate - strategic school staffing practices. Collectively they contribute to our theoretical understanding of strategic human resource management in schools while also providing guidance for policymakers and school leaders looking to staff schools efficiently and effectively.
