Thesis (Ed.D.)--University of Phoenix, 2010.

Public education in the United States has long been viewed as a means of expanding economic opportunity, enhancing social mobility, developing a skilled workforce, and preparing young men and women to participate in a democratic society (Murnane & Steele, 2007). Teachers are crucial to the success of our students, yet many of them are leaving the profession for various reasons (Alliance for Excellent Education, 2008). The purpose of this proposed qualitative phenomenological study was to explore and identify ways that leaders at the Uvalde Public School District, Uvalde County, Texas, can attract, develop, and retain qualified teachers. This qualitative phenomenological study involved conducting interviews with 27 current and former K-12 teachers from the Uvalde Public School District, Uvalde County, Texas in an effort to obtain their input into ways of attracting, developing, and retaining qualified teachers. The pre-set open-ended questions were designed to gain the participant's personal views and responses on (a) why teachers leave the school district, (b) measures school district's administrators need to take to retain teachers' services, and (c) how does in-school mentoring by veteran teachers affect the retention rate of new teachers. The interviews were analyzed using the modified van Kaam method that is designed for data clustering and forming common themes. In phenomenological research, the van Kaam approach gathers common statements from interview responses and denotes them as invariant constituents. These are arranged by frequency, wherein the most common responses more or less represent the overall response of the population under consideration. The findings will be shared with the Assistant Superintendent and educational leaders of the Uvalde Public School District, Uvalde, Texas who expressed interest in the study.
