Teachers = Free Agents

 

The old rules are gone. Loyalty? Long gone. Waiting for tenure? No longer necessary.

In the education world, there is a new reality. It’s this: the best teachers are free agents.

That’s right. Free agents. No longer stuck. Left with a multitude of options.

Schools are scrambling now. There are not a ton of applicants. I remember the days of sifting through seven hundred applications for a single teaching position. Now there are three. There aren’t enough teachers to go around.

This is your moment. Teachers = Free Agents.

Consider what makes you special and unique. Hold out for the perfect fit. I accepted the first position I was offered because I had to. You have options. Explore them. Make sure that you are treated the right way.

You’ve invested time, energy, and heart into being the best teacher that you can be. Now it’s time to reap those rewards.

The future of education depends on those teachers who know their worth and their power.

Be bold.

Be strategic.

Be a free agent.

 

PS – Spread the word. Make sure you share this with teachers everywhere.
