Where are they going though? I know we like to think we are employable in any field but the truth is, (having made the jump), teachers can't walk out of the classroom into any career they want. And teachers are paid really well to change fields completely. When you leave teaching with 10 years experience and walk into an industry you have NO training for with 0 years experience it isn't always dollar for dollar. I know some folks will jump on here talking about how they made more money leaving the classroom, (which I'm skeptical of), but it isn't automatic. It's very hard to change industries and there are a LOT of folks looking for jobs. And well, teachers can be toxic in the work environment so why would a company hire someone they have to train that wants more money and more time off because they might have kids versus a new graduate that will require less training, have fewer opinions and be less likely to miss work? These folks have to have a plan because it's too expensive to just sit unemployed.
